Travel the World using your Military Benefits™
About Us
Military Living® Publications is the largest travel publisher of military travel information for all uniformed services members, active and retired, and their family members.
Military Living® Publications Mission Statement
At Military Living® Publications, we understand that military life can be dangerous and challenging. We know that when service members get time off, they want to relax and travel, and they can do this by utilizing their military benefits. This is where Military Living® Publications comes in. Since 1967, we have published information to help military families use their benefits to travel around the world. We do this by using our website militaryliving.com, our various travel guides, and our maps to help communicate to our military readers how they can travel, shop and live using military facilities. We are a good news publisher, and we always do everything we can to put forth positive news of the American military. The Military Living® Publications staff are all military retirees and spouses and consider it their mission to help our readers make the most of their military travel and benefits.
