About
I'm John Farmer — a U.S. veteran, the founder of Veteran Forge Strategies, and the writer behind a small network of guides built to help people make confident decisions. After serving, I started Veteran Forge Strategies to bring practical IT, compliance, and security work to small businesses and the public sector. Alongside that, I write plain-language guides on the things I know and care about: veterans' benefits, home backup power, and small-business security. The goal is always the same — do the homework, tell the truth, and leave people better equipped than I found them.
