The Wichita County Veterans Support Office has dealt with staffing shortages and reduced hours of operation for years. But now, they’ve got a full-time staff that can better serve veterans in the county.

“The idea is to get people on the path to go through the Veterans Administration to succeed in getting their claim through,” Wichita County Judge Woody Gossom said. “I think veterans are going to see a great deal of improvement in the processing of their applications towards benefits.”
