How can veterans utilize the services offered at your agency?
As a prior service recruiter for the Navy Reserve, my main priority is to make veterans aware of all the benefits the Reserve offers them. Based on someone’s needs I would explain the benefit that would pertain to them. For example, the ability to have affordable healthcare for a family of 4. The Navy Reserve offers Tricare Reserve Select at $239/month allowing for everyone to include the service member to go to an in network doctor out in town.
