After The Bugles Corporation is formed exclusively for educational and charitable purposes to assist all American
veterans disabled by war, their families, and the families of fallen heroes Specifically, the After The Bugles educates
the general public about disabled American veterans, their care, and their lack of care, plus the sacrifices of friend, family,
through motion media, Internet and electronic publishing, telecommunication, and physical events and a variety of other means
appropriate to the goal. The same apporach exists for surviving families.
In this role, we are documentarians who seek the facts/truths and present them for public interpretation.
We are not a political action organization; we do not endorse candidates; and we do not sponsor legislation. Through
our efforts, we strive to inform and motivate citizens to become involved with disabled American veterans and the
process that provides for disabled American veterans' care and benefits. Further, we strive to keep known and to address
the sacrifices which families, friends, and communities endure in caring for the disabled and severely debilitated veterans,
