The business, VECA, which stands for Veterans Electrical Contractors Association, was founded by World War II veterans and has a long history of training and hiring veterans. Over the last 10 years, the company has employed more than 300 veterans. Seven more veterans will start at VECA on Monday [April 2, 2012].
