RadioShack to be exclusive retailer for veterans’ mobile services

Fort Worth, Texas -- RadioShack is partnering with Defense Mobile Corp., a Connecticut-based veterans mobile service company to be the exclusive national retailer for Defense Mobile's new nationwide 4G LTE mobile services.



RadioShack will begin offering Defense Mobile's branch branded mobile services exclusively to the 51.6 million members of the U.S. military community, including those actively serving (including members of the Reserve and National Guard), veterans and their family members, planned for September.



Defense Mobile brands, including ARMYmobile, NAVYmobile, AIRFORCEmobile, MARINESmobile and COASTGUARDmobile, will be offered initially in 2,500 RadioShack stores, and all company locations by 2015.



"RadioShack stores are located in the heart of communities where veterans work and live,” stated Brendan Reilly, Defense Mobile, CEO. "We are excited that RadioShack is committed to our mission to connect and improve the lives of veterans."



Defense Mobile was built by veterans and is supported by a 100% veteran-staffed member service organization.
