The Winston-Salem Regional Office mission is the delivery of benefits and services to North Carolina veterans. Our goal is to provide optimum service through quality, timely and compassionate benefits delivery.
 

North Carolina is home to six military installations:

 

• Fort Bragg (6th largest number of separations in the nation)
   
• Camp Lejeune (8th largest number of separations in the nation)
   
• Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station
   
• New River Marine Corps Air Station
   
• Seymour Johnson Air Force Base
   
• Pope Air Force Base
   

For Fiscal Year 1997, North Carolina ranked 4th among the states in the number of military separations (15,908). With this large military presence, the Winston-Salem Regional Office has over 112,000 potential active duty customers in addition to over 710,700 North Carolina veterans. While other states are experiencing the closing of military bases, North Carolina military installations continue to expand in mission, size and population. This growth in veteran, active duty, reservist and dependent populations has resulted in a significant increase in compensation and pension claims, loan guaranty activity, requests for vocational rehabilitation and counseling services, requests for assistance and information, and a wide range of products and services required to support the activities of the Regional Office.
