Tomorrow is Veterans Day and we want to recognize you! While you may know us for offering “A Real Thank You” throughout the year, we want to also salute you for the freedoms our nation enjoys on this special day, which celebrates its origins 105 years ago with Armistice Day heralding the end of World War I.

In addition to over 400 offers in our marketplace today, our November cover story is a roundup of companies that have stepped up to recognize you with a Veterans Day freebie or discount. As members have told us, the VetRewards card is a great way to redeem these offers. It verifies your service to the country and is accepted at over 150,000 locations nationwide.

We also want to wish a happy 248th birthday to the U.S. Marine Corps. Semper Fi to our Marines!

On behalf of the team at Veterans Advantage, we hope you enjoy a restful Veterans Day. No one can ever take away your contributions to our nation, and we are forever grateful. Thank you.

The Dick Van Dyke Show WeSalute Awards CelebVet: Dick Van Dyke “I'm looking for work if anybody has,” joked the now 100-year-old comedian and entertainer Dick Van Dyke. Best known for his iconic roles in films like Mary Poppins and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and the classic television series The Dick Van Dyke Show, the beloved actor has officially joined the centenarian club. Van Dyke celebrated his 100th birthday on December 13, a milestone marked not by a lavish Hollywood gala, but in true Van Dyke fashion: with a low-key day at home watching Jeopardy! reruns with his wife, Arlene Silver.

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.
