I wanted to take this opportunity to announce that we have deployed an enhanced search engine for navigating the Veterans Advantage Marketplace.

You now have the ability to search by keyword any offer you want (for instance, “car rentals” or “Avis”), and have easier access to a navigation of our top shopping & travel categories. And you can configure the categories where you want to focus. This is the perfect tool to assist your holiday shopping and travel. Check it out today!

With an eye on the calendar, the National Guard celebrated 387 years of service this past Wednesday. As the oldest and one of the largest military branches with both state and federal responsibilities, the National Guard holds a vital role in defending our freedoms.

We salute and thank our citizen soldiers, the National Guard men and women and their families, for their service to our communities and our country!
