Washington Ranked One of the Worst States for Military Retirees

Fifth place. Not great. Sure, not as bad as Oregon, Washington DC, Nevada and Vermont (Vermont coming in last place) but certainly we can do a better job of making sure our military retirees are taken care of.

Best state goes to Virginia. Shout out to Virginia!
