VETCOMM Film Selected as Finalist for MV Shorts Film Festival Celebrating Veteran Voices

VETCOMM’s short film, featuring CEO Kate Monroe, has been named a finalist at the MV Shorts Film Festival, honoring stories that highlight the courage, sacrifice, and resilience of the veteran community. The film reinforces VETCOMM’s powerful message: “No Veteran Is Left Behind.”


Honoring Veteran Stories Through Film

VETCOMM U.S., founded and led by Marine Corps veteran and CEO Kate Monroe, has been selected as a finalist for the National Entertainment Awards Academy for Military & Veterans (NEAAMV) MV Shorts Film Festival.

The festival, held November 8, 2025, during Veterans Day weekend at the American Legion Ronald Reagan Palisades Post 283 in Los Angeles, celebrates individuals and organizations whose creative work uplifts the military and veteran community.

Winners will receive national recognition, scholarships, official trophies, and a $1,000 grand prize, with selected projects also featured on VetStreamTV — a platform dedicated to military and veteran storytelling.


A Powerful Portrayal of Veteran Challenges

VETCOMM’s short film, starring Cobra Kai’s Sean Kanan alongside Kate Monroe, delivers an emotional depiction of the everyday struggles veterans face — from confusion after transitioning out of service and navigating the VA system, to the tragic outcomes that result when veterans don’t receive the support they deserve, including homelessness.

“Being recognized by an academy that honors military voices is a profound honor,” said Kate Monroe, CEO of VETCOMM. “This nomination reflects the heart of our mission: to shine a light on real veteran stories, honor their sacrifices, and give them a second chance at the support and opportunities they were promised during their service.”


Continuing the Mission: No Veteran Left Behind

This nomination stands as a testament to VETCOMM’s ongoing mission — empowering veterans across the nation, amplifying their voices, and ensuring they receive the benefits they’ve earned.

Through film and advocacy, VETCOMM continues to highlight systemic challenges faced by veterans while inspiring change and compassion among the public.

With every story told, VETCOMM reminds the world of its unwavering commitment: “No Veteran Is Left Behind.”

VETCOMM offers a Money-Back Guarantee for veterans who follow the full process as outlined. When you sign up, you agree to allow us two attempts to help you secure at least a 10% VA rating. To remain eligible for a refund, you must attend all scheduled appointments with our team and complete your VA-requested C&P exams.

If your first VETCOMM-assisted claim results in a total VA rating increase of 10% or more, the goal of the course has been achieved and the guarantee is fulfilled. No refund is issued.

If your first claim does not lead to a 10% total increase, VETCOMM will assist you in filing a second claim.
If the second claim results in a 10% or greater increase, the goal has been achieved and the guarantee is fulfilled.

If your second claim also does not result in a 10% total increase, you have two options:

  1. Request a full refund

  2. Proceed with a third filing and waive your right to a refund

Filing a third claim fulfills the guarantee obligation, regardless of outcome. Many veterans require multiple filings due to documentation challenges or individual circumstances that affect how the VA awards ratings. While we assist in the process, approval decisions are made solely by the VA.

There are a few situations where the Guarantee Refund Policy does not apply:

  • Veterans with a 90% Total Disability Rating:
    Due to how the VA calculates ratings, increasing from 90% to 100% is very difficult. VETCOMM will still assist with up to three (3) VETCOMM-assisted claims, but no refund will be issued if a 10% total increase is not awarded.

  • Veterans with an Other Than Honorable (OTH) Discharge:
    Veterans with an OTH discharge can still file claims with VETCOMM. However, because of additional VA restrictions, we will assist with up to two (2) VETCOMM-assisted claims, and no refund will be issued if a 10% total increase is not awarded.
