Hancock Field Air National Guard Base -- The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) launched its new "Returning Veterans" website to welcome home veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts with a website that focuses on their needs and questions.

The website will feature videos, veteran stories, information on benefits, and a blog where former military personnel are encouraged to post feedback. The site also restructures the traditional index-of-benefits format found on other VA pages into question-based, categorized, and easily navigated links by topic.

This will allow Veterans to find benefits of interest easily and discover related benefits as they explore.
