EchoStar Communications [DISH] and its DISH Network Business Solutions (DNBS), in conjunction with Flying Colors Broadcasts, will provide business television services for the Veterans of Foreign Wars.

The VFW is committed to delivering community service programs and special projects to its 2.7 million members. The group plans to use the DISH Network platform to distribute training broadcasts to expand its accessibility to VFW members across the United States. In addition, the VFW was the first group to use the business television service via DISH Network earlier this summer when 5,000 VFW members participated in a three-hour live training symposium delivered to 70 posts and telecast nationally, Littleton, Colo.-based EchoStar said.
