March 20 event will include job opportunities and assistance with benefits.
John B. Latimer American Legion Post 217 in College Park, Md., is hosting a veteran benefits and employment fair on March 20.
Event coordinator Sean Phelan said the fair will include employment-related help and benefit experts for veterans and their families.
