We are proud to be an organization that is made up of Veterans and extended members of the military and Veteran community who leverage their own unique experiences and passions to help other Veterans receive the full disability benefits they have earned,” said Josh Smith, CEO of Veteran Benefits Guide. “We are honored to be recognized for our commitment to celebrating and supporting transitioning service members and military Veterans.”
