Jarret Schlaff, co-founder of Pingree Detroit, has started a workers cooperative to help veterans enter the manufacturing world of leather high-end boots, sneakers and bags.  We talk to Army and Air Force veterans employed with Pingree Detroit.  They are earning a living wage and becoming owners in the business. This is a story of how a community supported a crazy idea that now has legs and helps veterans get their feet back on the ground.
