About Us and Why.

Michigan Veteran Placement  was founded when the owner, an 18yr Army Veteran, while working for an automotive supplier, met a young man who completed his commitment to the Marines as a Supply Clerk, then after separation he could only find a job working at a local restaurant.  This young veteran has a great personality, intelligence and Integrity.  He is the reason this business was founded to benefit Veterans as much as other Michigan Residents.
