If you are a Veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces and were Honorably Discharged you will become eligible to shop on-line at military exchanges starting November 11, 2017 through a lifelong exchange benefit. Honorably discharged veterans can now verify their eligibility at VetVerify.org.

All it takes is three easy steps:
> Submit a verification form at VetVerify.org
> Follow the Exchange on Facebook for ongoing updates
> Start shopping on November 11, 2017

Do you have to sign up for Facebook to have access to this? If so that is a shame for the Veterans who refuse social media of that type.

Will a state (Iowa) drivers license with a "Veteran" endorsement be accepted? State requires a DD-214 to issue the endorsement.

I believe the answer to your question is NO. I don't know of any reason why new enrollers would be treated any different than current users. We get the option of advertisements through the mail or via e-mail.

This is for online purchases - not for visits to the exchanges, but who knows, that may come down the road.
