MURRAY HILL (WABC) -- They wore a uniform when serving our country.

But for job interviews, U.S. Military veterans often need to wear a suit.

The "Suiting Warriors Foundation" is helping vets get suited up this Memorial Day weekend.

Today and tomorrow their mobile unit is parked outside the service members' club in Manhattan's Murray Hill neighborhood.

Vets who stop by can get a suit for free.

The goal is to help them with the often difficult transition from military to civilian life.

Women serve in the military too of course and "Suiting Warriors" puts them in suits and dresses.

They're also accepting donations of clean professional clothing.
