Recently Relocated to the Atlanta area spoke with the front desk representative I assume as I was inquiring about possibly receiving some type of free tickets or promotions for homeless veterans for a nonprofit organization. Very unprofessional very rude.I can understand why Georgia is amongst the lowest and veterans programs in the nation. I will follow this up by moving up the chain.
Atlanta USO doesnt support retirees. Still never understand why some places treat retirees so differently. Most of retirees have more than 20 years of service, so why does that account for anything?
Please Read* First Active Military members, stop with your complaining! USO is voluntary staffed , kind of like you volunteered to Serve. Not all places are perfect, comfy and cushy...like my Air Force peeps. Stop expecting free hand outs! Enjoy whats provided at no cost to you or look elsewhere, you have choices. Veterans, thank you for your service. Understand USO is mostly catered to Active Military...Again Active Military...meaning people who are currently serving! Think of it this way Vets... if you own a small business place (example: most all USO) and all things are voluntary (free) given (food, internet, chairs, etc).. normally not a whole lot keep in mind... and you have people who you currently employ and they use your Free service , but past employee want to use it too... some to include their families mind you...wouldnt it be hard for you to keep things up and running. The Common Sense answer is... Yes. And it would not be fair for the people who are currently working/ serving our country. Veterans, You have enjoyed your benefits while serving, let the currently enlisted enjoy theirs. **But if they have room for you at the USO..be Grateful and Thankful! And ask yourself next time....do I Donate or volunteer at my local USO to make it better? Or Im I expecting handouts like Liberals and most Democrats? Bye...Off I go we go into the wild blue yonder, climbing high into the sun.
Im a retired vet with a peg leg and was denied because i wasn't active duty. This is absurd i wish i could report this
