Reunion.com Helps Active and Retired Military Personnel Reunite and Remember this Veteran's Day

Web Site's Unique Features Provide Veterans with an Easy Way to Keep in Touch with Military Comrades

Los Angeles – November 1, 2004 – Reunion.com, the leader in keeping people in touch online, today announced that military personnel, both active and retired, can use Reunion.com's unique features to reunite with old friends this Veteran's Day.

According to the Department of Veteran Affairs, there are currently 19 million war veterans living in the United States and more than 1.4 million active U.S. military personnel stationed around the world. As veterans and members of the armed forces lose touch with one another over the years, Reunion.com offers an array of features to re-connect online. With Reunion.com, veterans can post and read messages, share photos, post reunions and events, and automatically keep their contacts' information up-to-date for years to come. Veterans can also be notified if anyone in their contact list gets married, has children or grandchildren, changes addresses, celebrates a birthday or has any other life-changing events.

“As the Internet is becoming increasingly accessible to people of all ages, Reunion.com is proud to offer retired military personnel the opportunity to reconnect and reflect upon experiences during and after their service,” said Jeff Tinsley, CEO of Reunion.com. “In addition, active military personnel stationed around the world can use Reunion.com to easily keep in touch with family and friends with whom they may have lost contact over time.”

With Reunion.com's new service, “Who's Searching for You?,” veterans also benefit from an easy way to find and reunite with fellow veterans online by discovering who has been conducting searches matching their name, age and location. After discovering who has been searching for them, veterans are given the opportunity to contact the individual who conducted the search through Reunion.com's private message service.

Veteran's Day is observed on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the year, which is the time and date of the official end of World War I in 1918.
