I would think that if a Veteran is aware of another Vet's business, then sure...they would support...and just not saying it.

The Laguna Cafe is a veteran-owned and operated small business. Our VFW Post members meet there regularly every Friday morning for breakfast and advertise it free-of-charge on our website. That's just one example of how we help

Well, if I know that it is a veteran owned business, yes I go there. I have seen a least one where I live that said that and they where price gouging, taking advantage of people and got shut down. Not all are that way, but if I know they are a veterans, yes.

Yes if its a business myself or others I use, then total support! Currently know a retired Marine who I send referrals when auto work is needed. :)

I won't automatically support a business for being veteran-owned, but you definitely have a leg up on getting my business.
