Veterans Service Officer encourages county’s veterans to reach out

CHENANGO COUNTY – The Chenango County Veterans Service Officer recently returned from a training seminar held by the American Legion and wanted veterans from around the county to know that he’s here to help.

United State Air Force Veteran Joseph Coe, was recently hired as Chenango County’s Veterans Service Officer, and after a week long training seminar held by the American Legion Department of New York, he’s inviting the veterans in our community to reach out to him for support.

“The veterans who served our country have earned their benefits, and that’s where I come in,” said Coe. “My office is open between Monday through Thursday, from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., and I’d love to hear from any veteran who might be interested in receiving their benefits.”

Coe said the best way to reach him is by telephone at (607) 337-1770, and after setting up an appointment he looks forward to serving the needs of the veteran community.

He asked that those who meet with him bring their DD214, a service verification document, to help speed up the process, and thanks the county’s veterans for their patience.

“There has been a pretty serious learning curve, but I try to do my best everyday,” Coe said.

Coe explained that the veteran service officer program is fairly new in Chenango County, and he appreciates the assistance he’s been granted by the county and in particular the Agency on the Aging.

“They’ve been incredibly helpful, and it has made the transition much easier for me,” he said.
