In a show of gratitude and appreciation for their courageous service, Governor Deval Patrick has traveled to Iraq to meet with Massachusetts servicemen and women. Joined by Governor Jim Douglas (R-VT), Governor Tim Pawlenty (R-MN), Governor Mike Rounds (R-SD) and Governor Jay Nixon (D-MS) on a Department of Defense-sponsored trip, Governor Patrick departed Washington, D.C. from Andrews Air Force Base yesterday following briefings at the Pentagon and a visit with wounded Massachusetts soldiers at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

Building on the Patrick-Murray Administration's commitment to honor and support Massachusetts veterans, Lieutenant Governor Timothy Murray, Veterans Affairs Secretary Thomas G. Kelley, Higher Education Commissioner Richard Freeland, and University of Massachusetts Lowell Chancellor Martin T. Meehan yesterday evening urged thousands of Massachusetts veterans to learn about the "use it or lose it" provision within the federal law for the Post-9/11 GI Bill. Veterans, whose service to the nation entitles them college tuition benefits, may be unaware of this provision, forfeiting their right to educational assistance.

Closing cost assistance will be provided through a grant by Fannie Mae (FNM/NYSE).
