I am pleased to announce that Sam Brown of Nevada will serve as the next Under Secretary for Memorial Affairs at the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Sam is an American HERO, a Purple Heart recipient, and successful businessman from Nevada, who has devoted his life to serving America. He fearlessly proved his love for our Country in the Army, while leading Troops in battle in Afghanistan and, after being honorably retired as a Captain, helping our Veterans get access to emergency medications.

Sam will now continue his service to our Great Nation at the VA, where he will work tirelessly to ensure we put America’s Veterans FIRST, and remember ALL who served.

Congratulations to Sam and Amy, also an Army Veteran, and his three beautiful children!

Brown then posted a statement on social media:

Thank you, President @realDonaldTrump , for your leadership and trust. I am grateful and accept this opportunity to put Duty First and continue my service to America.

I look forward to working with incoming Secretary @RepDougCollins, a true servant leader, to improve the VA and ensure all who have served are honored with the dignity they have earned.

To my fellow veterans: I’ve got you! 🇺🇸
