WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) - Delaware Gov. Jack Markell has signed a bill giving tax credits to those who hire veterans.
    
The governor signed the bill Tuesday morning in Wilmington. The governor's office says the Veteran's Tax Credit will be up to 10 percent of a qualified veteran's wages, up to a maximum of $1,500. Employers may take the credit the year a veteran is hired and the two subsequent tax years.
    
Markell was joined at the signing by Delaware National Guard Major General Frank Vavala, state lawmakers and executives from JP Morgan Chase. The company has created an office dedicated to supporting the veteran community.
