Charleston, SC: (PRWEB) November 07, 2015 -- https://www.VetFriends.com – the largest Web site for reuniting U.S. military veterans, carries the spirit of Veterans Day by carrying out its own tradition: the annual Veterans Day "Honor & Thanks" campaign. As part of this campaign, the site offers a nationwide parade directory, a Veteran Discount Center and historical photo tribute – free for all to view. Additionally, a nationwide online database of VA Hospitals with resources, ratings and reviews has been created at https://www.VAratings.com.

After reuniting with a Vietnam service buddy through VetFriends.com, veteran K. D. Herbert writes to VetFriends.com:
"A couple of months after posting my photo, I received an e-mail from VetFriends saying someone was trying to get in touch with me. It turned out to be the photographer of my picture and a friend...We have since been exchanging e-mails and he has even added a few pictures of his own to VetFriends too...It was fantastic to hear from him. Thank you VetFriends."
A nationwide online database of VA Hospitals with ratings and reviews at https://www.VAratings.com has recently been launched. The goal of the site is to allow veterans to share their experiences, rate their local VA hospitals and clinics and to help improve and provide awareness to Veterans Affairs facilities nationwide.
VAratings.com powered by VetFriends.com provides a free ratings/review system with a directory of all VA Hospitals, Outpatient Clinics, Veteran Centers, National Cemeteries and Intake Centers. The rating system consists of a 5 star rating process with questions about a veteran’s visit that deal with: Department, Ease of scheduling, Wait times, Treatment quality, Staff’s quality of care and more. A comment section is also available where veterans can add more information and others visitors can respond directly to posts.
