Resources for Veterans in the USA
A veteran is any person who has served in
the US Armed Forces during a time of war or a time of
peace. This can include the US Army, US Navy, US Marine
Corps, US Air Force, US Coast Guard or the National
Guard. Veterans, whether they served in a combat zone or
not, have all given a portion of their lives to the
protection and service of their country. They, and their
families, willing signed up to make the ultimate
sacrifice for their fellow citizens, and many have
suffered physical and mental repercussions because of it
– and many have lost their lives. Because of this, the
US Government has several programs in place to help them
with life after the military.
