Throughout our military careers, we had the distinct privilege of shopping at the base exchanges and would receive discounts on many items. After being discharged, most of us lost those benefits — until now.


Mark Wahlberg and Marcus Luttrell are here to officially announce that those discount advantages are coming back starting Nov. 11, 2017, for veterans who qualify.

"All honorably discharged veterans are encouraged to visit VetVerify.org to confirm eligibility for their lifetime exchange online benefit today," Luttrell states in the informational video. "Thank you for your service and welcome home, guys."

This process is extremely simple; just go to www.vetverify.org and register your information to see if you're eligible. Once completed, you'll receive an email confirming your newly earned lifelong online benefits. Many veterans are even being pre-selected to test the benefits immediately, instead of waiting until November.

The duo first teamed up in 2013's epic true story "Lone Survivor," directed by Peter Berg. Wahlberg played Luttrell in the film, exemplifying the SEAL's heroic journey.
