Melbourne,
January 21, 2010
Congressman Bill Posey will welcome Robert Medina to his district office staff as the new Community and Military Affairs Representative. He joins the Posey team in a continued effort to increase community outreach, interaction, and involvement with constituents.
“Rob’s experience as a United States Marine, combined with his extensive knowledge of our local and state government, makes him an ideal candidate to serve our great veterans and community,” said Congressman Posey. “I am delighted to extend my welcome to Rob and look forward to working with him to ensure that the promises made to our veterans are kept in good faith.” Mr. Robert Medina is a veteran who served in the United States Marine Corps from 1984-1988. He brings with him unique and valuable experiences he gained at the State of Florida Department of the Lottery as a marketing consultant, as well as with the Brevard County Board of County Commissioners as a Commissioner’s Aide to Jackie Colon. As a Military Affairs Representative, Medina will assist constituents with obtaining military records, VA claim processing, and receipt of medals that were awarded during service but never received. Medina and fellow Posey staffer and current Veteran’s Affairs caseworker Chris Hill will work together to provide local veterans with necessary services and help in resolving benefits related problems with the VA. In addition to his veteran’s affairs responsibilities, he will also serve as a field representative for community relations.
