Veterans! If you need assistance during the government shutdown, use your resources! Each base has MWR (among other groups), and outside the base there are VFW, American Legion, Jewish War Vets, and so many other organizations who are in the business of helping vets. Don’t be ashamed if you need help! Veterans Closet in Waukegan has clothes, a food pantry, and household items for free. Reach out to us if you need something specific!
