Special internet deal for vets

Q: I heard you say that vets can get internet access for $10/month. I looked at my provider’s website and did not see that plan.

A: Internet access is something we often take for granted. It's become a necessity of life that keeps us in touch with friends and family, informs us about the world at large and can be a big part of the jobs we perform every day. One internet service provider has been working for years to lower the cost for veterans of the U.S. armed forces. You might also qualify for a computer or laptop for $149.
