Missing Veteran From Tomah VA Found in Stable Condition

Less than two days after the Wisconsin Department of Justice released the nation’s first ever Green Alert for 70-year-old Michael “Mike” Bates, he was found safe.

A Silver Alert had also been issued after Mr. Bates left the Tomah VA Medical Center Community Living Center at 9:11 a.m. Tuesday morning.

Mr. Bates is stable and his family has been contacted.

“This is a splendid example of how the Silver Alert and Wisconsin’s Green Alert systems foster cooperative efforts between local, state and federal agencies,” says Victoria Brahm, Tomah VA Medical Center Director. “I would like to personally thank the Wisconsin media outlets for broadcasting and sharing the Silver and Green Alerts. Additionally, our staff at the Tomah VA are grateful and appreciative to have Mike safely returned home.”
