Serving as a combat medic in the Army put a lot of wear and tear on Yusuf Henriques’s body. His knees are bone-on-bone, he has a traumatic brain injury, and he was exposed to toxins. With help from DAV, Yusuf was able to get the full disability benefits he earned and start two different healthcare technology companies. Together with his fiancée, he’s working hard to improve the lives of other veterans.
DAV is a nonprofit that provides a lifetime of support for veterans of all generations, their families and survivors. Every year, our no-cost services help nearly 1 million veterans access the benefits and health care they’ve earned while connecting them with meaningful employment.
With the right support, more veterans can find their victory.

Today’s attacks at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul—which claimed the lives of several U.S. Marines and one Navy Corpsman and wounded many others amid the humanitarian evacuation efforts—are yet another major blow to the veteran community during this difficult time. DAV recognizes the complex range of emotions many veterans are experiencing as this situation continues to unfold. Our hearts remain with the families and friends of the fallen, and we urge veterans impacted by this situation to reach out if they’re having a difficult time and need to speak to someone. The Veterans Crisis Line is available 24/7 at 1-800-273-8255, and thousands of trained DAV service officers stand ready nationwide to direct veterans to available resources.
