News & information

The National Association of Letter Carriers is made up of approximately 277,000 active and retired members, of which almost a third are veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces.

To date, more than 7,000 NALC members have joined the NALC Veterans Group, which was designed to provide all NALC members who are military veterans access to the information and tools specific to veterans’ rights and benefits within the U.S Postal Service.

The NALC Veterans Group aims to give its members the means to connect with fellow NALC veterans and to stay informed on issues of importance to letter carrier veterans. These veterans traded their military uniforms for letter carrier uniforms, and they continue to serve their communities and this great nation.

The group also seeks to provide all NALC members who are also military veterans—active full-time and part-time letter carriers, as well as retired letter carriers—resources, rights information and a sense of camaraderie.

Veterans Group members receive a pin as a symbol of gratitude for your military service and membership in the NALC.
