I use the Veteran Owned Business Directory whenever I can. For both personal use and for my business' needs. I highly recommend you check them out. Besides being free to search, businesses owned by veterans (and also active duty military) get a free business profile.
This site needs to be revamped from the ground up. More than half the businesses listed in it are either no longer in business or no website, email or even a phone number is listed. Everything is out of date. I expected more.
As a Veteran I absolutely LOVE this site. Not only can you find a company with the products you wish but many times you can find they are right around the corner from you and you did not even know.
Speaking of Veterans--
Here is one for all or the Veterans & the Families of!
"I've Got Your Back!"
I am a small and precious child, my dads been sent to fight...
The only place I'll see his face, is in my dreams at night.
He will be gone too many days for my young mind to keep track.
I may be sad, but I am proud.
My daddy's got your back.
I am a caring mother. My son has gone to war...
My mind is filled with worries that I have never known before.
Every day I try to keep my thoughts from turning black.
I may be scared, but I am proud.
My son has got your back.
I am a strong and loving wife, with a husband who had to go.
There are times I'm terrified in a way most never know.
I bite my lip, and force a smile as I watch my husband pack...
My heart may break, but I am proud.
My husband's got your back...
I am a soldier... Serving Proudly, standing tall.
I fight for freedom, yours and mine by answering this call.
I do my job while knowing, the thanks it sometimes lacks.
Say a prayer that I'll come home.
It's me who's got your back.

Please note: The author of this lovely poem was unknown to me when I first ran across it. I have since learned from a reader that it is a copyrighted poem by Autumn Parker, entitled "Proud!" It has been circulating the Web--and I want to give the author proper credit at this time. I hope that others finding it will do the same!
AIRBORNE!
I've been with VOB almost since they're beginning. And have always enjoyed the support and their mission statement. I encourage all veterans to join.
