All of us at Disabled Veteran Solutions would like to wish all of our veterans and their families a wonderful Holiday Season and a Happy New Year!
As with every holiday, we always like to inform our veterans of how to enjoy the holiday. This month, we'd like to do that and also let everyone know how all of you can help veterans in need this month so they can have the best Holiday season as possible.
