Interesting. So my guess wasn’t entirely correct. Thanks for setting me straight.

And thanks for your service.

I didn’t intend to ‘set you straight’ but have found the whole issue of govt agencies doing business with vets a farce.

Seems if you are a flag officer they will do business with you. Anyone else has to compete with everyone else. Minority owned, women owned or 8a business can get contracts with little to no competition. A service disabled vet company gets no consideration even from the VA.

Theres a lot of lip service, executive orders, and so forth. It comes down to the contracting officers find it easier to do business with the big companies and will every chance they get.

Heck the DHS small business representative got pissed off that I bothered him with an email.
