Organizations supporting the expo will include SEFCU\, USPS\, JDOG Hauling\, and USAF.

"I have two sons\, one is a US Marine and the other a US Air Force\, both enrolled years ago. To this day\, they [we] have difficulty finding all the information they both needed for their stages in their career\, and have it be all in one place. This is a void we have in the Capital Region\, as we have organizations and agencies in place\, but no place to talk to them all. This is exactly what we are hoping to achieve at the mall!" The Military Awareness Expo is completely free to attend\, and will offer 70+ vendors ALL military related. The information booths will include active recruiters\, Veterans transitioning services\, a job fair\, VA Loans\, resources\, free legal counsel services\, and much more. Workshops\, seminars and briefings will be held throughout the event. Albany County Executive Daniel P. McCoy will kick-off the annual "Honor a Living Veteran" program at this event.
