Veterans can use computers at Northport site

Veterans using facilities at the Salvation Army Veterans Residence on the Northport Veterans Affairs Medical Center campus now have additional computers they can use to create resumes, use the Internet and write letters.

Suffolk County Legis. Steve Stern (D-Huntington) donated surplus computers from the Suffolk County Department of Public Works.

“Unfortunately, too many of our veterans are in need of basic everyday amenities,” said Stern, chairman of the legislature’s Veterans and Seniors Committee.

The computers are normally available to nonprofits that ask for them.
