Sep 09, 2010 (Herald-Times - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) --
Military veterans in south central Indiana will be able to receive free counseling and assistance with their government benefits during the Harley's Heroes program offered from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday at Harley-Davidson of Bloomington at 522 W. Gourley Pike.
During the program, a joint venture of Harley-Davidson and the Disabled American Veterans, DAV National Services officers will provide benefits counseling to veterans suffering from injuries or disabilities related to their military service but may have never filed a claim for benefits with the Department of Veterans Affairs, or have found it difficult working through the red tape.
"We've gotten phone calls from several disabled veterans already who've heard about the event," said Jim Markland, spokesman for Harley-Davidson of Bloomington. "Most have been World War II veterans who say it's hard for them to get to Indianapolis. They are happy to be able to get assistance with their benefits in Bloomington."
