■ ■ VetConnections.org Launched by the Morgantown, West Virginia Chamber of Commerce, President Ken Busz explained in a recent interview with Veterans Opportunity Magazine, that the web based nonprofit began with a visit of then Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff almost 3 years ago, to

Morgantown. “He wanted to see how veterans make it easier on veterans to find the services and programs that are available to them. Consequently, VetConnection came out of that. According Chamber President, Ken Busz, “It has as its root a website that has many of the programs we can locate that veterans and families can take advantage of to help them...if nothing else -it has raised the conscious level of people in this community to the plight of veterans that they (may not) realize just what a veteran’s they might not know about otherwise.”

Veterans are in high demand in our industry.

Join us in the opportunity to secure our country’s energy future.
