Therefore, it is better to contact the VA. The Internet has all the necessary information ('where are these organizations, contact phone numbers, names of managers). Request information about a particular veteran. You most likely will not give his address, as it is confidential information. Ask an alternative. For example, you visit an event where you need people, and you'll meet.

If you indicate that the veteran moved, it is likely he will be registered in the same Association at the new place of residence. Then you will be able to ask the leadership Council of veterans to send a request or do it yourself.
