Father’s Day 2020 is Sunday, June 21! Come celebrate the fathers in your family on this special day. This Benefits Alert highlights our top companies who offer exclusive benefits for you to surprise and please the father in your family. Check them out!

Today’s TopVets are astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley . They remind us of the importance and significance of service to our country, as we embrace space exploration and a race to Mars. And speaking of family, these two exceptional veterans each met their spouses from their same NASA astronaut class of 2000!

As we approach the halfway point of 2020, we think about the future of our nation in light of COVID-19, an economic downturn not experienced since the great depression and the state of racial injustice in our country. Amid the turmoil and disruption across America, we must pull together as a country. As we do so, we honor those who fought and sacrificed to preserve our freedoms 

As Saturday’s 76th anniversary of D-Day reminds us, our nation’s freedoms are precious. It is up to all of us to carry the torch for those before us, as we have an obligation to pass on a better world for those who follow. 

You will appreciate this Johnny Cash song, as passed on to me by great friend, Thor O'Connell, proud Marine and Commander of the American Legion Post at the New York Athletic Club in NYC: Go here so see it on YouTube.

holiday travel guide 2025 Discounts & Benefits WeSalute Review: Your 2025 Holiday Travel Guide on How to Save More and Stress Less on Your Getaway The holiday season is officially in full swing. While the golden rule of travel is usually "book early," we know that military & veteran life doesn't always adhere to a strict schedule. If you are just now finalizing your plans for Hanukkah, Christmas, or New Year's, don't panic. Preparation is still the key to a stress-free vacation, and even at this late stage, knowing where to look can lead to significant savings.
Scott Higgins Discounts & Benefits Connecting When It Matters Most: Your Two Weeks to Make Memories As the calendar flips closer to the end of the year, we enter what I always consider the most critical two weeks for connection. This run-up to the holidays — from mid-December right through Christmas and New Year’s — is when the impulse to connect with friends, family, and loved ones becomes a necessity. For the military community, whose lives are defined by separation, these are the moments you simply can't miss.
