Scott's Corner
Scott HigginsWe are entering a period of important holidays recognizing military service: Armed Forces Day on Saturday, and Memorial Day next weekend. As we honor the service and sacrifice of those who serve and those who made the ultimate sacrifice, we must also adequately address the issues of health and employment for the returning troops who have fought in two long wars. We owe them and each of us has a responsibility to make a positive contribution to that process. Last month, Veterans Advantage organized the first Corporate Career Symposium with Fortune 500 companies employing over 1 million people, pledging a guaranteed interview for student veterans who brought a resume. These companies guaranteed nearly 600 interviews for our vets!

As we enter the summer months, you can take advantage of some of the savings ideas in this special edition Benefits Alert. For starters, there are great summer cookout options with savings from Sears.com and Omaha Steaks. Nothing beats a burger under the sun for the upcoming Memorial and Independence Day Holidays.

We also know many members like you may be moving this time of year, in which case you should check out the savings with North American and Allied Van Lines. And when you move into your new place, consider setting up a home security system with ADT, providing security with substantial savings.

Finally, you can enjoy some of our most popular travel benefits: United Airlines and Lufthansa Airlines, Amtrak, and Greyhound. They are all leaders in their industries and markets – and all offer exclusive discounts for Veterans Advantage members like you.
