This Week’s Member Newsletter: School and Family

Active Veterans Advantage members are currently reading this week’s e-mail newsletter to learn more about partners and locations that accept the Veterans Advantage Card. For starters, as I mentioned in the blog last week, I replaced my office machine at a nearby Apple Store, showed my Veterans Advantage card and saved over $200! And we chose this week to salute a handful of other providers doing the same: Boston Market, Red Roof Inn, AT&T Wireless and T-Mobile, just to name a few. Click their links on our newly designed Web site to learn more about what you get when you show your Veterans Advantage card.

Our editor’s special picks should make for interesting reading about all military families as well. For starters, our VetFamily profile this week reveals a very disciplined side to two-time Academy Award nominated actress Amy Adams, and how an ol’ fashioned Army brat upbringing has led her to her latest achievement, co-starring with Meryl Streep in this month’s hit “Julie and Julia.” Secondly, be sure to check out the report from our military disabilities expert, Dr. Barbara Van Dahlen, about how war-related Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is affecting children returning to school this year.
