Shelley Kneece, director of the Logan County Veteran’s Services Office, said Monday during the opening ceremony for this year’s county fair that her office is actively seeking out veterans from those eras to help them realize their full host of benefits for military service.
Mrs. Kneece said veterans who enlisted after October 2001, and who were Ohio residents at the time of their enlistment may be eligible for an Ohio Veteran’s bonus.
“Some veterans may be unaware of all the benefits they’ve earned for their service, and so we want to help them get that information,” the director said. “If you know a Vietnam veteran, send him our way, and if he won’t come, then his wife should stop by our office.
“We’re great at working with veteran’s wives, also.”
