RE: MBNA credit card offer with VFW co-brand offer - even Vets can't get card with less than 5 yrs. credit history

About two months ago I was sent an offer from MBNA sponsered by the VFW(Veterans of Foreign Wars). My wife and I have about five cards which we have managed to keep in good standing.To the point I was denied even though I am a member of the VFW, and was told I needed to have credit for at least 5 yrs.I`m trying to figure out why the VFW would sponser such a card for it`s members if the host bank is so casual in dismissing applicants.......Thank You for this web site...EP
