As a former DAV National Service Officier, I can tell you with some authority that alot of these organizations continue to rate a D or F when it comes to money returned to do service to veterans. As it was stated earlier in the thread if you want to give your money fine, but do it at the local chapter, that money stays within the chapter and it used for "service" to veterans usually in the local area.

DAV National has a staff to die for and the top guys (used to be seven) are making well over 100K each. The two top retired individuals are drawing a retirement from DAV and then are on the staff as advisors and I have been told (source rated A1) that they are making 200K each....so much for helping soldiers.....JMHO...But I'll give my money to SFA or GBF.
