One of the very first lessons that every Veteran learned no matter which service they served in, was to never leave a person behind. As Military Veterans in Agricultural Marketing Service we keep that same mindset. This list of resources was designed with each of you in mind. It does not cover every scenario but it covers a lot of ground. If you have a question or scenario that you need assistance with, contact the Point of Contact and we will leverage the Veterans affinity group to find a solution or the right resource for you.
