WeSalute (founded as Veterans Advantage) Awards
Awarding members of our armed forces and veterans who inspire us with their top leadership, major achievements, community service and other ways they continue to give back to our country.
Recognizing Our Veterans with WeSalute (founded as Veterans Advantage) Awards for Outstanding Service & Achievement
At WeSalute (founded as Veterans Advantage), we are lucky enough to speak with current or former servicemembers every day. We recognize that many of these individuals have shown selfless service to country or exceptional bravery during combat. We call them our heroes, but they humbly tell us that anyone would do what they did. But, in many ways, anyone who steps up to serve to protect our freedoms and our country is our hero.
WeSalute (founded as Veterans Advantage) recognizes many of these selfless, brave individuals that continue to be our heroes whether they remain in the military or after service in their civilian lives. We seek to honor them for their outstanding contributions to our society, their major leadership roles in our military, and for top achievements in their chosen profession.
Our WeSalute (founded as Veterans Advantage) Awards recognize as TopRank the members of our armed forces who have committed their lives and attained the highest ranks of leadership in service to our country.
We award veterans who have accomplished the top achievements within their chosen profession as TopVets or Celebvets for those in the media, entertainment or sports industries.
HeroVet is awarded to veterans who, after having served, continue their public service by giving back to their communities or by making outstanding contributions to our society.
VetFamily highlights those men and women of high achievement in the public or private sector, whose family member is a veteran or active duty serviceperson.
We hope you are as inspired by their stories as we are.

A Real Thank You is Coming to the Nursing Community
We want the nursing community to know that we see you. You work twelve-hour shifts that often turn into fourteen. You make split-second decisions that save lives. When doctors aren’t available, families look to you for answers. You are the constant presence when people are at their most vulnerable — providing not just medical care, but comfort, advocacy, and hope.

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.

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.
"Respect. Recognition. Rewards." for Our Military & Veterans
Our Co-founder and CEO, Scott Higgins, founded WeSalute (founded as Veterans Advantage) with the mission of recognizing Vietnam Veterans who had never received the support and respect they deserved for the sacrifices they made to serve America. Many of our Awards recipients are Vietnam Vets, and honoring them is a cause near and dear to Scott's heart.
