@Michael Kennedy you do not have to get a VA loan from a military focused bank like USAA or Navy Federal. I have gotten 2 VA loans and neither were from a military focused organization just ask your local lenders if they do VA loans, many do.
For what it's worth I bank with USAA and they have would solely bank with them if not for needing an account at another institution. Their biggest pain from my perspective is depositing cash since there are only a handful of cities that have an actual branch location.
