Did you know only one Seabee has received the Medal of Honor in the history of our country? With the Navy’s birthday yesterday, read about Marvin Shield and his extraordinary acts of heroism in Vietnam, 1965, an article reprinted from our friends of We are the Mighty.

The calendar says we are two weeks away from November, and that historically has been a meaningful time for our Veterans Advantage members. Veterans Day is November 11, and we’re committed to a month full of exclusive opportunities to thank you for your service to the country.

Since 2012, we have been big supporters of Veterans Day in New York City, hosting events and attending events with fellow members in the area and creating “Veterans Week.” This Veterans Day, we are expanding our commitment to include new ways to recognize you no matter where you live.

Expect live streaming events, new offer launches, Veterans Day deals, and exclusive offers on VetRewards subscriptions. As a subscriber to our newsletter, you’ll hear more soon. Stay tuned!

We are now officially less than a month away from July 4, 2026—the Semiquincentennial, or America’s 250th Anniversary. Two and a half centuries ago, a bold and unprecedented experiment in self-governance was born. As the nation prepares for this historic milestone, it is a time for profound reflection on how a fragile collection of colonies transformed into the world’s greatest beacon of liberty.
