21M Military Veterans And Their Spouses Get GM Cars' Discount Plan

In honor of National Military Appreciation Month, General Motors has recently announced its offer of expanding the discount program to the country's dedicated servicemen, MSN reported.

The military discount program, which would benefit up to 21 million veterans (including their spouses), is also going to be available for those in reserve, active duty, and the National Guard. Thousands of dollars in savings are expected for new purchases of different GM models. These can be anywhere between a new Chevrolet, Buick, or GMC vehicles.

Also, up to $1,700 off can be enjoyed through purchase of a 2015 last-gen Camaro SS as well as a $3,000 discount can be taken off a Chevy Silverado All Star. In addition to the huge price offs, other General Motors incentives can be combined with those military discounts. Some models not included in the gift-giving deal would be the Cadillacs, Corvette Z06, Chevy Cruse, and the base Colorado, to name a few, according to the publication.

GM not only recognizes the brave efforts of the country's servicemen; the company has been supporting the U.S. military way back since 1917.

"These brave men and women have done so much for our country," according to Steve Hill, General Motors' vice-president of U.S. sales and service. "Making sure all veterans can take advantage of our military discount to celebrate Military Appreciation Month is one small way we can express our gratitude."

Nowadays, the company has employed and helped the newest batches of veterans who have returned home. Together with national partner "Hiring Our Heroes", GM has collaborated with military advocates and employers in strengthening the campaign for jobs. Around half a million veterans have already benefited with GM's partnership with these employers for jobs post-retirement since 2012.

General Motors received one of the "Best for Vets" employers' award by the Military Times this 2016.
