About Us
BLUF Military Benefits (BMB) was founded by Jeff (Current CEO), an Air Force Captain, with a passion for helping fellow U.S. military families better understand and learn about many opportunities that often go unrealized.
To date, the team refers to Jeff, a stellar Board of Directors, a core group of family and friend supporters, and a few invaluable military veteran freelance writers.
We would love to grow our core volunteer support team with more members across the globe!
If you are interested, I'm sure we could find a spot for you, just email us at volunteer@blufmilitarybenefits.com
