The mission of our advisors in the First Command office in Arlington is to help those who defend the American Dream achieve it.  We work primarily with military professionals, federal employees and veterans who have entered second careers.  Our advisors hold face-to-face meetings with our clients to learn what is important to them.  We then develop financial plans that are designed to help them achieve their financial security.  Our advisors encourage and nurture long term business relationships with our clients.
