	Description:		Only on the "CBS This Morning" podcast, combat-decorated Marine officer and Iraq war veteran Zach Iscol joins CBSN's Reena Ninan to discuss what we can do to support our veterans this Memorial Day weekend. As the founder and CEO of Hirepurpose, Iscol works to bridge the gap between major corporations and the military community. With Fortune 500 companies face increased pressure and competition for talent, Hirepurpose provides them access to the underutilized and highly-skilled talent pool of veterans, while also providing one-on-one support to veterans. Iscol explains how his time in Iraq instilled in him an entrepreneurial spirit and how military experience make veterans the ideal job candidates. Iscol also discusses the Headstrong Project, a non-profit organization that provides cost-free and bureaucracy-free mental health care treatment to Iraq and Afghanistan veterans with PTSD and TBI.
