When I saw their fear, I rose and spoke to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people: “Do not be afraid of them; remember the Lord who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives and your houses.
Nehemiah 4:14

Norm Stitzel – Founder & Chaplain
VET S.A.R was founded in 2014 by Norm Stitzel. Norm is the Commandant (8 years) and present Chaplain (9 years) for the Cortland County Marine Corps League Det. #221 (Endorsed G.A.R.B.C. Lay-Chaplain), member of the Disabled American Veterans, American Legion, and the V.F.W.. These provide opportunities-endlessly and desperately needed-to minister to veterans of all eras, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq and Peace Time. In 1993, Corporal Stitzel received a medical discharge from the Marine Corps and has navigated through the VA system for many years, sometimes without help, and many times with help from other veterans who had gone through the system. The military S.O.P. (Standard Operating Procedure) for senior NCOs and Officers is to lead the way for their troops and help them along the way. VET S.A.R continues that tradition as a single focused “Mission”, by sharing the knowledge of many that have experience the sometimes maze of services and benefits available. Even if the resource is not established to meet a certain need, we can improvise and adapt to overcome the obstacles and get the mission complete of meeting the veteran’s needs.
