"These struggling veterans are our sons and daughters, our mothers and fathers, our brothers and sisters. They all served our country. We share both the pride and problems of our military servicemen and women. At U.S.VETS we believe we have an obligation to help protect and serve those who have served and protected us. This is why we are committed to helping veterans." - U.S. Vets Website

Present at the event were U.S. Vets representatives, City of Prescott and Prescott Valley officials, Prescott Chamber of Commerce representatives as well as numerous U.S. Military Veterans.  Great job U.S. Vets!
