For over 228 years ordinary men and women have stood at the gates of freedom and protected us with duty, honor and selfless-service.  These ordinary men and women are members of the American Armed Forces.  Without their courage and bravery all the freedoms that we hold dear could have been lost long ago. 

Throughout our history many have given the ultimate sacrifice and laid down their lives to ensure that America’s resolve for peace and freedom would be preserved for the next generation.  Others have returned home to their families with scars of their service. 

 The Orange County Veterans Coalition is dedicated to ensuring that the service, courage and bravery of those who have protected our freedoms is not forgotten.  Our purpose is to unite the various Veterans’ organizations throughout Orange County to work as one for the advancement of veteran causes and to improve the day to day life of those who have returned home.  By working together we can ensure that our efforts are not duplicated and the needs of Veterans are met.
