Matthew,

I highly recommend going to Patriot Bootcamp ( http://www.techstars.com/patriotbootcamp/ ) to get feedback. They just had this year's event in NYC, so might have to wait about 9 months for the next one, but they have some great mentors and can help you get in front of funding sources.

Matthew,
Reach out to vetsintech.co.

Start a new discussion on the Veteran Mentor Network on LinkedIn. with over 40,000 members who self-identified with Veterans and mentoring, there may be a "patent expert" and "tech startup" expert within our group.

Keep us updated and let us know what works.
