Using being a vet as a selling point.

So i'm a 20% disabled vet, which I know isn't a lot but I have my issues. Since I just can't seem to find employment that I can actually do and I need to make money I was thinking about starting my own computer business for repair, installation and web site design. I was thinking of mentioning that the business is owned by a disabled vet, but I'm not sure if this is a cheesy thing to do or not, so I was looking for your all thoughts.

I would hope this would be a good thing to advertise. I currently work as the leader in our Veterans division and focus on helping other veterans who own their own companies do better.

Do it. Service members or prior serivice memebers tend to be more honest business but not always. I would rather do business with a veteran.
