How to support these New Jersey veteran organizations

I'm always looking for ways to help honor our great veterans. So many young men and women sign up voluntarily to fight on behalf of their fellow Americans.

It's easy as the years go by to forget these heroes. Over my career in TV and radio, I've spent time working with veterans and supporting the causes that they promote.

I asked our audience to share the veteran organization that deserves a plug.

First on my list is my friend Larry Peters, who heads up the Eagle Riders Chapter in Bridgewater. Many of the riders are veterans and they continue to step up to raise money for important charities.

Here's are a few more:

New Jersey State Elks Association

Guardians of the National Cemetery

NJ State Veterans Chamber of Commerce
