PROXY STATEMENT

Annual Meeting of Stockholders

to be held on May 6, 2014

ABOUT THE 2014 ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING AT THE MEETING

This Proxy Statement is being furnished to the stockholders of VSE Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("VSE" or the "Company"), in connection with the solicitation of proxies by VSE's Board of Directors (the "Board") for use at the annual meeting of VSE's stockholders to be held on Tuesday, May 6, 2014, commencing at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Daylight Time, at the VSE Building, 6348 Walker Lane, Alexandria, Virginia 22310-3226, and at any adjournments thereof for the purposes specified in the accompanying notice of meeting (the "Annual Meeting").

The mailing address of VSE's principal executive office is 6348 Walker Lane, Alexandria, Virginia 22310-3226. VSE's telephone number is (703) 960-4600. Your Annual Meeting materials, including the Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement, and proxy card from our Board are enclosed. The Notice of Annual Meeting, this Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card are first being sent or given to stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting on or about April 7, 2014. If you received your Annual Meeting materials via e-mail, the e-mail contained voting instructions and links to the Annual Report and the Proxy Statement on the Internet, which are both available at www.cfpproxy.com/3307.

The close of business on March 24, 2014 is the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. Holders of a majority of VSE's outstanding common stock, par value $.05 per share ("Stock" or "VSE Stock"), as of March 24, 2014, must be present at the Annual Meeting, either in person or represented by properly executed proxy, to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted solely for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present. A proxy submitted by a broker that is not voted is sometimes referred herein to as a broker non-vote.

As of the close of business on March 24, 2014, there were 5,355,698 shares of Stock outstanding and approximately 257 stockholders of record. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of Stock held of record as of the close of business on March 24, 2014, on all matters that may be submitted to the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. All Stock represented by valid proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the directions on the proxies. If you are a stockholder whose Stock is not registered in your own name, you will need appropriate documentation from the stockholder of record to vote in person at the Annual Meeting. If you want to vote your Stock that is held in street name in person at the Annual Meeting, you will need a written proxy card in your name from the broker, bank or other nominee who holds your Stock.

Matters for stockholder to consider:

As discussed in more detail in this document, the purpose of the Annual Meeting is (1) to vote for the election of nine directors to the Board; (2) to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as VSE's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2014; (3) to approve amendments to VSE's 2006 Restricted Stock Plan (a) extending its term from May 3, 2016 to May 6, 2021 and (b) increasing by 250,000 shares the VSE Stock authorized for issuance under the plan; (4) to approve an amendment to VSE's 2004 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan extending its term from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2018; (5) to provide a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation; (6) to provide a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation; and (7) to transact any other business that may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board does not intend to present, and has not been informed that any other person intends to present, any matter for action at the Annual Meeting other than those matters specifically referred to herein. If, however, any other matters are properly presented to the Annual Meeting for action, the proxy holders will vote the proxies, which confer authority on such holders to vote on such matters, in accordance with their best judgment. The persons named as attorneys-in-fact in the proxies are the Chairman of the Board and VSE's Corporate Secretary.

Recommendations of the Board

The Board recommends a vote:

1.	"FOR" the election of each of the nine director nominees named in this Proxy Statement;

2.	"FOR" the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2014;

3.	"FOR" the approval of the amendments to the VSE Corporation 2006 Restricted Stock Plan (a) extending its term from May 3, 2016 to May 6, 2021 and (b) increasing by 250,000 shares of VSE Stock authorized for issuance under the plan;

4.	"FOR" the approval of an amendment to the VSE Corporation 2004 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan extending its term from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2018;

5.	"FOR" the approval by a non-binding advisory vote of our executive compensation; and

6.	"FOR" a recommendation, by a non-binding advisory vote, to hold an advisory vote on executive compensation on an annual basis.

Vote Required

Directors are elected by a plurality of votes cast, without regard to either broker non-votes or proxies as to which authority to vote for the nominees being proposed is withheld.

The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as independent registered public accounting firm will be determined by a majority of the votes cast, without regard to broker non-votes or abstentions.

The approval of the amendments to the VSE Corporation 2006 Restricted Stock Plan requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the Stock present, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. Abstentions have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the proposal.

The approval of the amendment to the VSE Corporation 2004 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the Stock present, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. Abstentions have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the proposal.

The approval of the advisory resolution on the Company's executive compensation requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the Stock present, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. Abstentions have the same effect as a vote against the advisory resolution. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the advisory vote. The results of this vote are not binding on the Board.

The advisory vote on the frequency of advisory votes on the Company's executive compensation will be determined based on a plurality of the votes cast. This means that the option that receives the most votes will be recommended by the stockholders to the Board. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted for the advisory vote on frequency of advisory votes on the Company's executive compensation and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of the proposal. The results of this vote are not binding on the Board.

How to Vote

We make our proxy materials available to stockholders by mail and on the Internet. You may read, print and download our 2013 Annual Report to Stockholders, 2014 Proxy Statement and proxy card at www.cfpproxy.com/3307. On an ongoing basis, stockholders may request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail. You may vote your Stock by Internet, by telephone, by regular mail or in person at the Annual Meeting. Each of these voting options is described in the notice and the proxy card.

You should complete and return your proxy card, or vote using the Internet or telephone voting options, to ensure that your vote is counted at the Annual Meeting, regardless of whether you plan to attend. If you return an executed Proxy Card without marking your instructions, your executed Proxy Card will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board. In connection therewith, the Board has designated the Chairman of the Board Clifford M. Kendall and VSE's Corporate Secretary Thomas M. Kiernan as proxies. If you indicate a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon on your proxy card or voting instruction card, your Stock will be voted in accordance with your instructions.

If you are a beneficial owner and hold Stock in street name through a broker or other nominee and do not return the voting instruction card, the broker or other nominee will vote your Stock on each matter at the Annual Meeting for which he or she has the requisite discretionary authority. Under applicable rules, brokers have the discretion to vote on routine matters, such as the ratification of the selection of independent registered public accounting firms, and do not have the discretion to vote on non-routine matters. Because the uncontested election of directors, the amendments to the 2006 Restricted Stock Plan, the amendment to the 2004 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan and any advisory vote regarding the Company's executive compensation are considered non-routine matters, brokers will not have the discretion to vote on such matters at the Annual Meeting.

Revocation of Proxies

A stockholder returning a proxy to VSE may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by granting a later proxy with respect to the same Stock or by communicating such revocation in writing to our Corporate Secretary. In addition, any stockholder who has executed a proxy but attends the Annual Meeting in person may cancel a previously given proxy by voting in person whether or not the proxy has been revoked in writing.

Proposal No. 1

Election of Directors

Nominees

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will elect, by a plurality of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, nine VSE directors who will constitute the entire Board.

"Jack" Potter, who was appointed as a director by the Board on December 6, 2013 with an effective date of January 1, 2014. Each nominee elected as a director will serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is elected and qualified. If any nominee should become unable to serve for any reason, the proxies will be voted for such substitute nominee as shall be designated by the Board. With the exception of Mr. Potter, who was not a Board member in 2013, all of the Board members were overwhelmingly approved for election by the stockholders at their annual meeting held on May 7, 2013.

Board, Committees and Corporate Governance

The Board had eight members during 2013. On December 6, 2013 the Board appointed Jack Potter to the Board, effective January 1, 2014, and as a result, the Board currently has nine members. Except for Mr. Gauthier who serves as our Chief Executive Officer and President, all of our nominees for directors are "independent" as defined by the applicable rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. ("NASDAQ"). Because our Chairman of the Board has no affiliation with the Company other than serving as Chairman of the Board, we do not have a senior non-executive director. Our eight independent directors regularly have the opportunity to meet without any management members present. During 2013, there were five regular Board meetings, and each director attended at least 75% of the total number of Board meetings (in person or by telephone) and at least 75% of the meetings of Board committees on which he or she served (during the period that he or she served). We do not have a specific policy regarding attendance at the annual stockholders meeting. All directors, however, are encouraged to attend if available, and we try to ensure that at least one independent director attends the annual stockholder meeting and is available to answer stockholder questions. All eight directors, including our then seven independent directors, attended our annual stockholders meeting in 2013.

The Board has an Audit Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and a Compensation Committee. The current charters for each of the Board committees are available on our Internet website, www.vsecorp.com. The Board committee members, as of the date of this Proxy Statement, are identified in the following table.

Changes in Committee Membership from 2013-2014 Term

Effective January 1, 2014, Jack Potter became a Board member and a member of the Board's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Audit Committee

The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to oversee our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of our financial statements. The Audit Committee is directly responsible for, among other things, the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee also reviews our guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, specifically our risk exposures in the areas of independent audit, financial reporting, internal controls and disclosure controls, and internal audit, and evaluating the action management has taken to identify, monitor and control such exposures.

All of the Audit Committee members during the past fiscal year were independent in accordance with applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and NASDAQ. Each committee member is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including our consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flow. The Board has determined that Mr. Lafond is an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in SEC Regulation S-K Item 407(d) (5). The Audit Committee met eight times during 2013.

Compensation Committee

The primary purpose of the Compensation Committee is to oversee VSE's compensation structure, to review and provide guidance to the Board regarding the compensation of VSE's officers and directors, including the compensation of VSE's chief executive officer and other executive officers, to review and provide guidance regarding employment agreements, to administer certain compensation plans, including restricted stock and deferred compensation plans, and to perform such other duties and responsibilities as are consistent with the committee's charter. The Compensation Committee reviews our guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, specifically our risk exposures related to compensation of directors, executives and management and the administration of our performance incentive and employee benefit plans, and evaluates the actions management has taken to identify, monitor and control such exposures. Each of the committee members is independent in accordance with applicable NASDAQ rules. The Compensation Committee met four times during 2013.

Matters recommended by the Compensation Committee, and any delegation of its authority, are subject to Board approval. If such approval is not received, the Compensation Committee will reconsider the recommendation or proposed delegation. The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain outside counsel or other experts or consultants as needed. Additional information on the role and responsibilities of the Compensation Committee is provided in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section below.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The primary purpose of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is to make recommendations to the Board with respect to nominees to be proposed for election as directors and with corporate policies regarding, among other things, business conduct, securities trading, indemnification of VSE officers and directors, and conflicts of interest involving VSE officers, directors and employees. The committee also reviews our guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, specifically our risk exposures in the areas of corporate governance, compliance and ethics, as well as succession planning for the directors and senior management, and the actions management has taken to identify, monitor and control such exposures.

Each of the committee members is independent in accordance with applicable NASDAQ rules. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met two times during 2013.

Committee Structure and Risk

The Board has overall responsibility for oversight of our risk management plans, policies and practices. Each Board committee has been assigned oversight of certain risks associated with its respective activities as discussed in this document, and each committee's charter has been revised to reflect these risk oversight responsibilities. The Board has approved a risk management policy that delineates the risk oversight responsibilities of management, the Board and its committees.

Director Nominations and Qualifications

Stockholders may recommend persons to be nominated for election as directors of VSE at the annual meeting of stockholders. To be considered, such recommendation must be submitted in accordance with VSE's by-laws and must be received in writing by VSE's Corporate Secretary no later than 90 days before the date in the current year that corresponds to the date on which the annual meeting was held during the immediate prior year. (Nominations for the year 2015-2016 should be received by the Corporate Secretary no later than February 6, 2015.) Such recommendation shall be accompanied by the proposing stockholder's name, evidence that such stockholder is a beneficial owner of VSE Stock, and the candidate's name, biographical data and qualifications.

The policy of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is to consider properly submitted stockholder nominations for candidates for Board membership as described below. In evaluating such nominations, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee seeks to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience and capability on the Board and to address the directorship criteria discussed below. On December 6, 2013, the Board appointed Jack E. Potter effective as of January 1, 2014, as a director and a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Under these criteria for Board nominations, Board members should have the highest professional and personal ethics and values, consistent with longstanding VSE values and standards. As a group, the Board should have diverse and broad experience at the policy-making level in business, government, education, technology or public interest. Board members should be committed to enhancing stockholder value and have sufficient time to satisfy their duties and provide insight and practical wisdom based on experience. A Board member's service as a member of other boards of directors of publicly traded companies should be limited so that the director is able, given his or her individual circumstances, to perform responsibly all duties as a Board member. Each director must represent the interests of all stockholders. While we do not have a formal policy regarding diversity of Board nominees or a formal definition of "diversity," the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has recently discussed diversity considerations of potential Board nominees within the context of Board succession planning. Factors discussed as relevant to the selection of Board nominees may include nature and length of business experience, including experience in business areas related to our potential growth areas, race, gender, age and factors that promote alignment of the Board with the interests of stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recently discussed potential retirement timeframes, transition planning with regard to succession, and optimal Board size.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee utilizes a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating nominees for director. Such committee periodically assesses the appropriate size of the Board, and whether any Board vacancies are expected due to retirement or otherwise. If vacancies are anticipated or otherwise arise, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider various potential candidates for director. Candidates may come to the attention of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee through Board members, professional search firms, stockholders or other persons. These candidates are evaluated at regular or special meetings of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and may be considered at any point during the year. As described above, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider properly submitted stockholder nominations for candidates for Board membership. Following verification of the stockholder status of persons proposing candidates, recommendations will be aggregated and considered by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee at a regularly scheduled meeting. If any materials are provided by a stockholder in connection with the nomination of a director candidate, such materials will be forwarded to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Such committee also will review materials provided by professional search firms or other parties in connection with a nominee who is not proposed by a stockholder. The committee has not in the past retained any third party to assist in identifying nominees for Board membership.

The traits identified with respect to the current director nominees as qualifications to serve on the Board include:

Ralph E. Eberhart	. .	Experience as Chairman and President of the Armed Forces Benefit Association provides insight into challenges associated with managing complex organizations and holding management accountable for company performance. Expertise in the defense industry due to 36 years of experience in the U.S. Air Force and senior positions in the U.S. military, including assignment as Commander-in-Chief North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command.

Maurice A. Gauthier	. .

Leadership Structure of the Board

The positions of Chairman of the Board and VSE's chief executive officer ("CEO") are separated at VSE. The Board believes that this structure best serves the Company's needs at this time. The Board believes that its existing structure effectively maintains independent oversight of management. The Board periodically reviews and considers whether the positions of Chairman and CEO should be combined as part of its regular review of the effectiveness of our governance structure.

Communications with the Board

Individuals may communicate with the Board by submitting an email to the Board at board@vsecorp.com. All directors have access to this email address. Communications that are intended specifically for non-employee directors should be sent to the email address above to the attention of the Corporate Secretary. Communications to the Board by mail can be addressed to The Board of Directors or a particular Board member c/o VSE Corporation, 6348 Walker Lane, Alexandria, Virginia 22310-3226.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

The Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of its directors, officers, including its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, and employees. The Code is posted on VSE's internet website at www.vsecorp.com. VSE intends to satisfy the disclosure requirements under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), regarding any waiver or amendment of the Code with respect to VSE's principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, by posting such required information on VSE's Internet website.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines, which together with the Company's certificate of incorporation, by-laws, committee charters and other key governance practices and policies, provide the framework for the Corporation's corporate governance. VSE's by-laws and charters for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Compensation Committee were amended and adopted by the Board on July 31, 2013. The Audit Committee charter was amended and adopted by the Board on October 31, 2013.

The guidelines, by-laws and committee charters are posted on VSE's website at www.vsecorp.com. The Board recognizes that ensuring that the Corporation observes good corporate governance practices is an ongoing endeavor. As a result, the guidelines are subject to annual review by the Board to determine whether they continue to promote the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and comply with all applicable laws, regulations and NASDAQ requirements.

Compensation of Non-Employee Directors for 2013

In 2013, the Company paid each non-employee director a cash retainer of $40,000 as a director's fee for the year. In addition, each non-employee director was paid $1,000 for each Board meeting attended, and each Board committee member was paid $1,000 for each committee meeting attended. Each non-employee director also received in respect of 2013 an annual award under our 2006 Restricted Stock Plan of such number of shares of VSE Stock equal to $60,000 divided by the per share closing price of VSE Stock on the first trading day of 2014, rounded to the nearest 100 shares. On January 8, 2014, each non-employee director was granted 1,300 shares of restricted Stock pursuant to the above-referenced annual award under our 2006 Restricted Stock Plan. On January 2, 2014, the closing price of our Stock was $46.75 per share.

The Chairmen of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee were each paid an additional annual fee of $12,000, $10,000 and $5,000, respectively.

The Chairman of the Board was also paid $60,000 for serving as Chairman of the Board during 2013.

Pursuant to our 2004 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan approved by stockholders in 2004, each non-employee director could elect that all or a portion of his or her annual cash compensation for services as a VSE director be paid in Stock at fair market value determined in accordance with the plan. No such elections were made in 2013. While the 2004 Non-Employee Stock Plan expired on December 31, 2013, stockholders will be asked at the Annual Meeting to approve extending its term to December 31, 2018, as discussed below under "Proposal No. 4 – Approval of an Amendment Extending VSE's 2004 Non-Employee Directors Plan."

Stock issued to non-employee directors pursuant to our 2006 Restricted Stock Plan is fully vested when issued, but the certificates for such Stock bear a restrictive legend prohibiting the sale, transfer, pledge and assignment of such Stock for two years commencing on the issue date. When all restrictions on a certificate bearing a restrictive legend have lapsed, VSE issues a non-restrictive certificate to the directors (subject to any applicable securities law restrictions). Directors appointed during the year will be eligible for a pro rata annual award.

No compensation is paid to any non-employee director for personal services rendered to VSE pursuant to a consulting or similar agreement between the director and VSE, or any of VSE's subsidiaries, unless authorized as a special assignment by the Board. No such authorization was requested for or on behalf of any director in 2013. The foregoing procedures do not restrict reimbursement for expenses incurred by a director for attending meetings of the Board or Board committees.

Proposal No. 2

APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Based on the recommendation of its Audit Committee, the Board has appointed the firm of Ernst & Young LLP to be VSE's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2014, and recommends to stockholders that they vote for ratification of that appointment. Although not required to do so, the Board has determined that it would be desirable to request stockholders' approval of this appointment. The ratification of the appointment of VSE's independent auditors will require the affirmative vote by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting. If such approval is not received, the Board will reconsider the appointment.

In 2013 and 2012, Ernst & Young LLP services included an audit of VSE's consolidated financial statements and reviews of the consolidated financial statements included in VSE's Forms 10-Q filed with the SEC for each of the quarters ended March 31, June 30, and September 30. Ernst & Young LLP services also included an audit of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Ernst & Young LLP's fees for professional services rendered for the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, were as follows:

	2013	2012
Audit fees (1)	$1,133,325	$1,103,324
Tax fees (2)	$156,804	$165,768
Other (3)	$1,945	$1,995

The Audit Committee has delegated to its chairman the authority to pre-approve additional audit-related and non-audit services not prohibited by law to be performed by VSE's independent auditors and associated fees up to a maximum for any one non-audit service equal to the lesser of $30,000 or 25% of the audit fees for VSE's most recent completed fiscal year, provided that the committee's chairman shall report any decisions to pre-approve such audit-related or non-audit services and fees to the full Audit Committee at its next regular meeting. The Audit Committee approved in advance all of the audit and non-audit services provided by the independent auditors in 2013 and 2012.

A representative of Ernst & Young LLP is expected to attend the Annual Meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement, if he or she desires to do so, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

The Board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote "for" the proposal to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP to serve as VSE's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2014.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee consists of four non-employee directors (Mr. Lafond, Mr. Kendall, Mr. Stultz and Ms. Wachtel), each of whom is considered an "independent" director for the purposes of the applicable rules the SEC and NASDAQ. The Audit Committee's responsibilities are set forth in its charter, a copy of which is available on VSE's Internet website, www.vsecorp.com. The Board and the Audit Committee believe that the Audit Committee members are and were at the time of the actions described in this report "independent" directors as independence is defined by NASDAQ Rule 4200(a) (15).

The Audit Committee has implemented the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Marketplace Rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. with respect to the responsibilities of audit committees of public companies. Among other matters, the Audit Committee reviews procedures on internal control over financial reporting with management and with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, and it discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the adequacy of the Company's internal controls and the overall scope and specific plans for their audit.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management VSE's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013, and has discussed with VSE's independent registered accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU Section 380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T.

The Audit Committee has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent auditor's communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the auditors the auditors' independence and considered whether the provision of non-audit services by the auditors is compatible with maintaining their independence.

Based on the foregoing reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the above referenced consolidated financial statements be included in VSE's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, for filing with the SEC.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OVERVIEW

Introduction

Founded in 1959, VSE Corporation ("VSE" or the "Company") provides government services with integrity, agility and value. The Company has historically generated strong stockholder returns over the long-term and is committed to continued long-term value creation for stockholders. The government services market is highly competitive and the Company's diversification has placed it in a more competitive market tier. The Company's continued ability to create long-term stockholder value is dependent on our ability to attract and retain highly qualified executives in the government services market, including the named executive officers in this Proxy Statement. As discussed in the following Compensation Discussion and Analysis, VSE's compensation program has been designed to align its management closely with the Company's commitment to long-term success.

Compensation Committee Philosophy

The principal objectives of our Board's Compensation Committee (the "Committee") are to (a) develop an executive compensation program that will attract and retain executive officers capable of leading and growing the Company in a complex, competitive and changing industry; (b) promote from within when warranted, (c) maintain a compensation structure that is competitive and performance based, and (d) link total compensation to corporate goals and performance.

Compensation Program Components

The four key elements of our executive compensation program are:

1.	Base salary to compensate executives for services performed during the fiscal year.

2.	Annual performance-based monetary incentive to promote achievement of the Company's profitability and return on stockholders' equity targets as calculated by dividing the Company's net income for the year by its total stockholders' equity at the beginning of the year ("ROE").

3.	Long-term incentives, including deferred supplemental compensation and awards of restricted stock to reward executives for their contributions to the Company's profitability and ROE.

4.	A 401(k) employee contribution matching program to maintain market competitiveness.

Basis for Compensation Decisions

For our executives as a group, we generally target total compensation, including long-term incentives, on numerous factors, including level of responsibility, individual performance, Company performance, market competitive data, and prior experience.

Leadership Structure

During 2013, the Company was managed by Maurice A. Gauthier, in his capacities as chief executive officer ("CEO"), president and chief operating officer. Officers reporting directly to Mr. Gauthier during 2013 included Thomas R. Loftus, as the Company's chief financial officer, Thomas M. Kiernan as the Company's general counsel and corporate secretary, John T. Harris as president and chief operating officer of our subsidiary Akimeka, LLC, and Harry J. Flammang as president of the International Group. The following compensation discussion and analysis outlines the processes, elements and decisions regarding 2013 compensation for VSE's following "named executive officers" - Messrs. Gauthier, Loftus, Kiernan, Harris, and Flammang (the "NEOs").

OVERSIGHT AND AUTHORITY OVER EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Committee Composition and Duties

The Committee is composed of three independent directors as defined by the NASDAQ listing standards and described in the "Board, Committees and Corporate Governance" section above in this Proxy Statement.

The Committee is responsible for reviewing and recommending for Board approval the compensation of our CEO (principal executive officer), chief financial officer (principal financial officer), and other executive officers, including all of the NEOs. The Committee is governed by a written charter adopted by the Board. The full text of the charter is available on VSE's corporate website at www.vsecorp.com in the "Investor Information" section under Corporate Governance.

The following is a summary of the Committee's key responsibilities relating to executive compensation:

1.	To review compensation programs for the Company's executive officers, including the NEOs, and to provide recommendations to the Board regarding such compensation programs;

2.	To review and approve corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the NEOs and make recommendations to the Board for approval of total compensation for NEOs; and

3.	To provide recommendations to the Board regarding director compensation.

Annual Compensation Review

In December of each year, the Committee meets to review the performance and compensation of our CEO and other NEOs.

In consultation with the CEO, the Committee reviews and approves the compensation of all other NEOs based on recommendations submitted by the CEO. In submitting these recommendations, the CEO evaluates the performance and recommends salary adjustments, bonuses, benefit plan participation, and all other elements of compensation affecting the NEOs. The Committee also reviews the prior year's stockholder advisory vote on executive compensation. At the 2013 annual stockholders meeting, the stockholders fully endorsed the Committee's compensation policies with a 99.3% approval vote with no suggested changes. The Committee has discretion in approving, disapproving or modifying any recommended salary adjustments or proposed awards to NEOs, subject to final Board approval.

Compensation Committee Philosophy and Pay-Setting Process

Total executive compensation is structured to attract and retain a superior management team consistent with our corporate strategic goal of recruiting and retaining top level executives. This is an essential element of our "promote from within" when warranted strategy. Our approach emphasizes investing in high performing internal candidates for career development and advancement. The strategic intent is to produce a stronger management team over time rather than incurring market driven attrition resolved through external recruitment.

The Committee believes it is important to maintain a compensation structure that is competitive, which allows us to attract and retain the executives we require to perform well, while maintaining labor rates that permit us to compete effectively in the markets we serve. We measure our competitiveness by comparing our prices for services against competitor prices and by monitoring our ability to recruit and retain highly qualified executives available in our chosen markets.

Because our chosen markets have compelled us to routinely compete against much larger companies for both new work and the executive talent required to prevail and succeed in those markets, it is important to consider the total compensation offered by those companies as one factor in setting total compensation at VSE. However, the executives at larger peer competitor companies are compensated for leading larger organizations of similar complexity with larger staffs. The compensation of executives at larger peer companies is, however, only one of numerous factors considered in establishing the compensation of our equivalent executives. In considering such comparisons, we take into account other factors such as revenue, headcount and net income at equivalent divisions.

The Committee also believes it is important to maintain a compensation structure that is performance-based, such that approximately two-thirds of total compensation target for each of our NEOs is performance driven based on achieving defined short-term and long-term performance-based goals and exceeding pre-established targets for profitability and ROE.

The Committee considers multiple factors, including those described above under Basis for Compensation Decisions, when determining compensation levels for NEOs. These considerations compel the Committee to consider other relevant factors such as industry conditions, bookings, backlog, client satisfaction and operational performance. The next step is to factor our competitive short term and long term performance incentives into the total compensation equation. VSE's short-term and long-term incentive compensation constitutes about two-thirds of total targeted compensation, with base salaries constituting approximately one-third of potential total compensation.

For the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, the percentages of total actual compensation of each component of our NEO compensation were approximately as follows (see the Summary Compensation Table below for actual amounts):

Actual NEO Compensation Components as Percentage of Total Compensation 2011-2013 Table

Compensation Components	Percentage of Total Compensation 2011-2013 (1)
Base salaries	54%
Performance-based monetary incentives (bonus)	15%
Long-term incentives-- Deferred Supplemental Compensation and Restricted Stock	29%
Other compensation-- 401(k) Match	2%

Note to Percentage of Total Compensation Table

1. While our target for total compensation is approximately two-thirds incentive based, the table reflects the percentage of actual compensation during the three-year period.

Role of Compensation Consultant

The Committee has the authority to engage independent compensation consultants to assist in evaluating the compensation of NEOs, as well as to provide periodic reviews of the effectiveness and competitiveness of VSE's executive compensation structure. During 2012, the Committee selected and retained Semler Brossy, which subsequently advised the Committee on a variety of compensation-related issues, including:

•	The appropriateness of potential modifications to the Company's long-term incentive plan, taking into account market trends and competitive practices;

•	Pay levels and compensation mix for NEOs; and

•	Emerging compensation trends.

In 2012, Semler Brossy received approximately $62,225 in fees from the Company for the services described above. Other than providing the services described above as a consultant to the Compensation Committee, Semler Brossy provided no other services to the Committee or otherwise to the Company in 2012.The Committee did not believe it was necessary to hire a compensation consultant for 2013.

Peer Companies and Survey Data

The government services market is complex and competitive. The Committee believes that a competitive compensation package is an important tool in our efforts to attract and retain qualified executives with government services contracting experience. In determining total compensation for our NEOs, we consider competitive market data for a peer group of publicly traded companies. The Committee does not apply a formulaic approach to setting individual elements of the NEOs' compensation or their total compensation amounts and does not set compensation levels at any specific level or percentile against the peer group data described below. However, the Committee periodically reviews market compensation levels to determine whether the total compensation opportunity for the NEOs is appropriate in light of factors such as the compensation arrangements for similarly situated executives in the market and may make adjustments as the Committee determines appropriate.

The peer group has historically been selected on the basis of comparable service offerings, market capitalization, revenues and profit margins. The nature of our highly decentralized and diverse lines of business presents challenges in identifying similar organizations for comparison purposes and a change to our peer group was made in 2012. The Committee has elected to use a larger peer group that was determined by the Institutional Shareholder Services, Inc. (ISS). In 2012, ISS used a methodology that identified 14 publicly traded companies in the services industry that are more comparable to our current market capitalization, revenues and profit margins than our previous peer group. The larger group of similarly sized peers provides a wider set of financial data, and to attract and retain qualified executives, total compensation levels for our NEOs should be established at a competitive level relative to this group of companies. For 2013, the Committee used the same ISS identified peer group as shown below.

Institutional Shareholder Services, Inc. (ISS) Peer Group

CBIZ, Inc.	Kforce Inc.
CDI Corp.	Metalico, Inc.
Heidrick & Struggles International, Inc.	Navigant Consulting, Inc.
Hill International, Inc.	On Assignment, Inc.
Hudson Highland Group, Inc.	Resources Connection, Inc.
Huron Consulting Group Inc.	The Standard Register Company
ICF International, Inc.	TrueBlue, Inc.

In preparing analyses of pay levels and compensation mix, we also refer to other commercially available survey sources such as the World@Work 2012/2013 Salary Budget Survey.

Consideration of Risk

Our compensation programs are discretionary, balanced and focused on the long term. Under this structure, the highest amount of compensation can be achieved only through consistent superior performance over sustained periods of time. In addition, some compensation is deferred or only realizable upon retirement. This provides strong incentives to manage the Company for the long-term, while avoiding excessive risk-taking in the short-term. Likewise, the elements of compensation are balanced among current cash payments, deferred cash and equity awards.

Additionally, to further align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders in pursuit of long-term value creation, the Committee recommended and the Board approved Stock retention guidelines for directors, executive officers and other participants in VSE's 2006 Restricted Stock Plan to be phased in over time as described in the "Stock Retention Guidelines" section in this Proxy Statement.

The Committee reviews the relationship between our risk management policies and practices and the incentive compensation we provide to our NEOs to confirm that our incentive compensation encourages taking prudent and avoiding unnecessary and excessive risks. The Committee also reviews the relationship between risk management policies and practices, corporate strategy and senior executive compensation.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMPONENTS

The four key elements of our executive compensation program are base salary, performance-based monetary incentives (bonus), long-term incentives (Deferred Supplemental Compensation and Restricted Stock), and 401(k) matching program.

Base Salary

The Committee believes that one of the most effective ways to compete in the government services industry's executive labor market is to offer our executive officers a competitive base salary. The Committee analyzes each executive officer's compensation using the following process:

1.	Review the key executive positions within the Company in terms of scope and responsibility, job complexity, knowledge, experience required, and other relevant factors.

2.	Rank the executive positions on the basis of these factors to establish a logical relationship among them.

3.	For other executive positions, establish salary ranges by utilizing applicable industry surveys.

The Committee considers benchmarks for each executive against similarly situated positions within our selected peer group companies. To clarify, the Committee does not set compensation levels as specific target levels of our peer group, but rather compares (or benchmarks) compensation with our peer group companies. In addition to such external market considerations, the Committee also considers internal pay equity among our executives, including the NEOs, for base salary planning. The foregoing discussion of how the Committee determines base salaries is not intended to be exhaustive, but does summarize the material factors considered by the Committee. The Committee did not find it useful to, and did not attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to these factors. The Committee conducted an overall analysis of the factors described above and considered the totality of the information presented to it, including discussions with our senior management.

In December 2013, the Committee approved 2014 base salary increases for Messrs. Gauthier, Loftus, Kiernan, Harris and Flammang. This decision was based in part on demonstrated strong leadership in a challenging market, as well as a combination of peer group adjustments and merit-based increases, with total compensation serving as the basis for peer comparisons. Mr. Gauthier, in his capacity as CEO, president and chief operating officer, received an increase in base salary from $600,000 to $670,000. Mr. Loftus received an increase in base salary from $294,580 to $302,534.

Mr. Kiernan received an increase from $235,557 to $241,917. Mr. Harris received an increase in base salary from $288,750 to $296,546. Mr. Flammang received an increase from $224,913 to $230,986.

Base Salaries of Named Executive Officers 2012 – 2014 Table

Harry J. Flammang	219,000	224,913	230,986

Subsequent Committee Actions

In December 2013, the Committee approved the CEO's recommendation to increase non-NEO officers' 2014 base salary compensation by 2.7%.

Performance-Based Monetary Incentive Compensation

Bonus Incentives

The Committee recommended and the Board adopted a performance bonus plan based on achieving annual financial results in excess of financial thresholds established by the Committee and approved by the Board at the beginning of each year (the "Bonus Plan"). Our bonus pool for corporate executives (except for Group or Subsidiary Presidents), officers and corporate staff is determined by achieving a certain return on beginning stockholders equity ("ROE"). Each year the Committee recommends, and the Board approves, a ROE maximum target.

In December 2013, the Committee recommended and the Board approved, the awarding of performance bonuses for the NEOs under the Bonus Plan in respect of VSE's fiscal year ending December 31, 2013 ("2013"). These bonus amounts ranged from 10% of the NEO's base salary for achieving a ROE of 11% to a maximum 100% of base salary for achieving a ROE of 18% or more. The maximum eligible bonus potential is set forth below.

Name	Maximum Bonus Potential
Maurice A. Gauthier	$	600,000
Thomas R. Loftus	$	294,580
Thomas M. Kiernan	$	235,557
John T. Harris	$	288,750
Harry J. Flammang	$	224,913

For 2013, the Committee and the Board approved VSE's ROE of 14%, as compared to the maximum ROE corporate target of 18%, in determining performance based incentive compensation. The aggregate annual performance bonuses under the Bonus Plan were approximately $2.9 million. Specific amounts paid to NEOs under the Bonus Plan are reported in the Summary Compensation Table below under the heading "Non-equity Incentive Plan Compensation."

The goals consist principally of operating income targets for operating group executives, and ROE for corporate staff, corporate officers and corporate executives, including the CEO, Chief Financial Officer and other NEOs. To participate in the bonus program, an executive must be an employee during the fiscal year that the bonus payment is earned and subsequently when the bonus payment is made. During 2013 the pool thresholds were established as follows:

·	The bonus pool for operating group executives, including Group Presidents, is determined by a percentage of pretax income formula based on a ROE at an 11% minimum threshold. Individual operating group executives' bonuses are capped at 100% of salary.

The bonus pool for corporate staff, corporate officers, and corporate executives is determined as a percentage of salary based on a ROE at an 11% minimum threshold. Individual administrative bonuses are capped at 15% of salary for corporate staff, 65% of salary for a majority of the non NEO corporate officers and 100% of salary for NEOs, including the CEO and Chief Financial Officer, and certain corporate officers.

As ROE equals or increases above the 11% minimum threshold, the bonus pool is created and will continue to increase as ROE (net of all compensation costs) increases up to the maximum target of 18%. At year end, the Committee exercises its discretion in how much of the pool to allocate to both operations personnel and corporate staff based in part upon executive management's recommendation and the Company's overall performance. Because the actual ROE for 2013 was approximately 14% compared to the maximum bonus pool target based on an 18% ROE, the NEOs, other corporate officers and corporate staff received bonus amounts that were less than their maximum bonus targets. In December 2013, the Board approved a maximum ROE target of 16% for the 2014 bonus pool. For 2014, a ROE of less than 9% will result in no performance bonus for operations personnel or the corporate staff, officers or executives, including NEOs.

The CEO maintains discretion on annual performance bonus allocation, which is principally based on ROE for all NEO's (except for the CEO), group executives and staff. Once the bonus pool is determined using the ROE methodology, the CEO will determine the amount distributed to each operating group executive based on the individual group operating income, taking into consideration performance execution and market factors. VSE does not maintain specific operating income targets that impact the bonus pool amount distributed to each operating group.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

VSE provides long-term incentive compensation to its NEOs to compensate them for their contributions to the Company's profitability and ROE. The two components of the Company's long-term incentive program are the Deferred Supplemental Compensation Plan and the 2006 Restricted Stock Plan.

Deferred Supplemental Compensation

VSE has a nonqualified, non-contributory Deferred Supplemental Compensation Plan ("DSC Plan") for certain VSE corporate officers, including NEOs and other key management representatives. The objective of the DSC Plan is to compensate executives for their contribution to VSE's profitability. The DSC Plan provides, at the Board's discretion, for a bonus pool to be created through an annual contribution to the plan not to exceed 12% of VSE's consolidated net income for the year. Each participant's potential allocation from the annual contribution bears the same percentage of the annual contribution as that participant's salary bears to total annual participant salaries.

Benefits are payable to participants on retirement or resignation, subject to a vesting schedule, two-year non-competition agreement and other plan provisions, or on a change of control of VSE as described in the "Employment Contracts and Severance Agreements" section below. The Board believes the vesting schedule and completion of the non-competition agreement prior to receiving a distribution create an additional benefit of encouraging executive retention.

In December 2013, the Committee recommended and the Board approved an annual contribution of 8% of VSE's consolidated net income for 2013 to constitute the DSC Plan pool for 2013. Eight percent of VSE's 2013 net income is approximately $1.8 million, which was the amount authorized in December 2013 and allocated to 35 participant accounts, including $473,000 allocated to NEOs.

Subsequent Committee Actions:

In December 2013, the Committee recommended and the Board approved an annual contribution of 8% of VSE's consolidated net income for VSE's fiscal year ending December 31, 2014 (2014) to constitute the DSC Plan pool for 2014.

Restricted Stock

The Committee believes that compensating executives with restricted VSE Stock pursuant to VSE's 2006 Restricted Stock Plan fosters a long-term focus on the Company's operational and financial performance and provides our executives with a means to establish an equity stake in the Company that will, in turn, align their interests with those of our stockholders. In addition, the vesting provisions and other restrictions on sale of the equity awards encourage executive retention. The Restricted Stock Plan for executives includes a three-year vesting schedule and two-year Stock sales restriction period.

Similar to the DSC Plan, under the Restricted Stock Plan, a dollar-denominated award equal to a percentage of a participant's base salary can be earned based on the Company's level of achievement of ROE targets. For 2013 (the awards could range from 10% of base salary for an 11% ROE to 90% of the base salary for NEOs other than the CEO and 125% of base salary for the CEO for a ROE of 18% or higher.

For 2013, VSE's actual ROE was approximately 14% compared to the maximum target of 18%. The CEO was awarded restricted Stock equal to 59% of his base salary compared to the maximum target of 125% of his base salary for the year subject to vesting and other restrictions, as reported in the "Compensation of Chief Executive Officer" section below. NEOs other than the CEO were awarded restricted Stock under the Restricted Stock Plan equal to 45% of their base salary for 2013 compared to the maximum target of 90%, subject to vesting and other restrictions. Specific amounts paid to the NEOs for 2013 under the Restricted Stock Plan are reported in the Summary Compensation Table below under the heading "Stock Awards." The following table displays restricted Stock awards based on ROE performance for 2013.

2013 Restricted Stock – Compensation Table:

Return on Equity	% of Base Salary NEOs other than CEO	% Base Salary-CEO
18% & higher	90%	125%
17%	79%	108%

13%	34%	42%
12%	22%	26%
11%	10%	10%
Below 11%	0%	0%

In December 2013, the Committee recommended and the Board approved targets that range from 11% of base salary for a 9% ROE to 90% for the base salary for NEOs other than the CEO and a range of 17% to 135% of base salary for the CEO for a ROE of 16% or higher for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014 (2014).

The following table displays restricted Stock awards based on ROE performance for the NEOs other than the CEO and for the CEO for 2014.

2014 Restricted Stock – Compensation Table:

Return on Equity	% of Base Salary NEOs other than CEO	% Base Salary-CEO
16% & higher	90%	135%
15%	79%	118%

11%	34%	51%
10%	23%	34%
9%	11%	17%
Below 9%	0%	0%

In 2011, the Board and stockholders approved an amendment to the Restricted Stock Plan, extending its term from May 2011 to May 2016. The extension of the Restricted Stock Plan was approved to replace the equity-based compensation provided under VSE's 2004 Option Plan. VSE has not granted any stock options since December 31, 2005. All stock options had been exercised or expired on or before December 31, 2009. As discussed below under "Proposal No. 3 – Approval of Amendments to VSE's 2006 Restricted Stock Plan," the stockholders will be asked at the Annual Meeting to approve amendments to the 2006 Restricted Stock Plan (a) extending its term from May 3, 2016 to May 6, 2021 and (b) authorizing an additional 250,000 shares of VSE Stock for issuance under the plan.

Awards made under the Restricted Stock Plan are subject to Committee authorization based on audited financial results, including total compensation costs, competitiveness of total executive compensation and other factors determined by the Committee and Board. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, reduce or totally eliminate an award to the extent it determines that such reduction or elimination is appropriate under facts and circumstances the Committee deems relevant.

Other Compensation

VSE executive officers, including NEOs, are eligible to participate in the VSE Employee 401(k) Plan, which is an Internal Revenue Service qualified plan available to all eligible employees.

During 2013, VSE paid a 401(k) matching contribution equal to 100% of the employee deferral on the first 3% of the employee pay deferred and 50% of the employee deferral on the next 2% of the employee pay deferred, with all such contributions fully vested when made.

Specific amounts contributed to the VSE 401(k) Plan on behalf of the NEOs are included in the Summary Compensation Table under the heading "All Other Compensation."

VSE does not provide any of its executives, including the NEOs, with perquisites or other personal benefits having a total annual value in excess of $10,000. The Committee periodically reviews the levels of perquisites and other personal benefits provided to the NEOs.

COMPENSATION OF CEO

Mr. Gauthier, our CEO, assumed the responsibilities of CEO, President, and Chief Operating Officer in April 2008, and became a Board member in April 2009. His activities include leadership in developing the Company's strategies, overseeing all of the Company's major business and staff units, and guiding and developing VSE's senior management.

Pay Awarded for 2013

In December 2012, based on Mr. Gauthier's management of the Company and the compensation decision making processes and policies described above, the Committee and the Board approved an increase in Mr. Gauthier's base salary from $515,000 in 2012 to $600,000 for 2013, and an annual incentive bonus for 2013 of up to $600,000 for Mr. Gauthier, which would be approximately 100% of his overall compensation target. Based on VSE's actual ROE for 2013, the amount paid as an incentive bonus was $294,000. In December 2013, the Committee recommended and the Board approved a grant to Mr. Gauthier of restricted Stock in an amount of up to 125% of his base salary. Based on VSE's approximate ROE of 14% for 2013, the awarded amount of restricted Stock under the Restricted Stock Plan was 59% of Mr. Gauthier's salary. Specific amounts awarded to Mr. Gauthier are set forth in the Summary Compensation Table below.

Pay Approved for 2014

In December 2013, the Committee recommended and the Board approved the following compensation for 2014 for Mr. Gauthier: (a) $670,000 in base salary, (b) participation in the DSC Plan (subject to an aggregate annual contribution not to exceed 12% of its consolidated net income for the 2014 and for all participants in the plan), (c) a participation in the DSC Plan of up to 100% of

Mr. Gauthier's base salary for 2014 (or a maximum bonus of $670,000), and (d) an award under the Restricted Stock Plan of restricted VSE Stock in an amount of up to 135% of his base salary for 2014 (or a maximum of $904,500).

OTHER COMPENSATION POLICIES

Employment Contracts and Severance Agreements

CEO

On December 6, 2013, VSE and Mr. Gauthier entered into an amended and restated employment agreement pursuant to which Mr. Gauthier will continue to serve as the VSE's chief executive officer, president and chief operating officer.

The amended and restated employment agreement provides for an initial three and one-quarter year term commencing as of January 1, 2014. At the end of the initial term, the agreement will automatically be extended for a one year period, unless either the Company or Mr. Gauthier has provided the other party with at least 120 days prior written notice of its or his intention to allow the agreement to expire. The agreement may be earlier terminated by Mr. Gauthier or the Company, with or without cause, upon prior notice.

Mr. Gauthier's annual base salary will be $670,000, subject to annual review by the Committee and the Board.

If Mr. Gauthier's employment terminates by reason of his death or disability, he would be entitled to payment of (a) his base salary then in effect for 365 days following the date of his death or disability and (b) a lump sum equal to his annual bonus amount for the year in which termination occurs, based on an estimate of the Company's performance for the period before termination, as determined by the Committee and the terms and conditions of the Company's annual bonus or incentive plan, prorated to reflect the number of days out of 365 during which Mr. Gauthier was employed during the year of termination, subject to subsequent reconciliation with the Company's actual performance for the entire year in which termination occurs (the "Annualized Performance Bonus").

If Mr. Gauthier's employment is terminated without cause or if he resigns for good reason (other than during a change in control period), he would be entitled to receive a lump sum equal to (a) two times his base salary and (b) the Annualized Performance Bonus. If Mr. Gauthier's employment is terminated without cause or if he resigns for good reason during a change in control period, he would be entitled to receive a lump sum equal to (a) the lesser of three times his base salary or such lesser amount as would not trigger the application of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code and (b) the Annualized Performance Bonus. In either event, he would also be entitled to medical and hospitalization benefits for 18 months after termination, all compensation and other benefits accrued as of the termination date, the vesting of all outstanding restricted Stock, restricted Stock units or similar rights to acquire capital Stock and the vesting of all unvested rights under the Company's DSC Plan. Nonrenewal of the initial term by the Company would not be considered to be a termination without cause.

Other NEOs

The Company has also entered into employment and transition agreements with each of the other NEOs. These agreements are designed to promote stability and continuity of senior management. Information regarding applicable payments under these agreements for the NEOs is also summarized in the Executive Compensation section below under the caption "Potential Payments on Termination or Change of Control."

Payments Made On Termination

On termination of employment with VSE or any of our subsidiaries, a NEO is entitled to receive amounts earned during his term of employment, including salary through date of termination, unused vacation pay and reimbursement for company business and travel expenses.

The NEO also retains a vested interest in and is entitled to receive payment in accordance with respective plan documents and other applicable procedures, restrictions (such as termination-for-cause), and expiration dates in respect of his 401(k) account, DSC Plan account and restricted Stock.

The NEO is also entitled to continue participation in our group health plans for a period of 18 months (COBRA continuation coverage) following termination on payment of 102% of the monthly premium charged to us for such coverage. We have no executive-only health benefit plans.

Payments Made On Death or Disability

Pursuant to employment agreements with each NEO, in the event of the NEO's death or disability for any period of six consecutive months in addition to the benefits listed under the headings "Payments Made On Termination" and "Payments Made On Retirement" above, the NEO's designated beneficiary or the NEO, as the case may be will be paid the NEO's base salary then in effect for one full year following the date of death or disability.

Payments Made On Change of Control

In addition to VSE's employment agreement with the CEO, VSE has entered into an employment agreements with Messrs Loftus, Kiernan and Harris. Mr. Loftus' and Mr. Harris' agreements provide that if a change of control of VSE occurs, the NEO may terminate the employment agreement on 30 days' notice. If a NEO's employment is terminated following a change of control, in addition to the benefits listed above under "Payments Made on Termination," the NEO will receive:

·	a lump sum payment equal to the NEO's base salary

·	full vesting and payment of the NEO's DSC Plan account

·	full vesting and payment of the NEO's Restricted Stock Plan benefits

The employment agreements and change of control provisions for each of the NEOs with employment agreements, other than the CEO, are substantially similar. Generally, pursuant to the agreements, a change of control is deemed to have occurred on the occurrence of any of the following events:

·	30% or more of the outstanding VSE Stock is acquired beneficially by one or more persons acting together in concert or otherwise;

·	A cash tender or exchange offer is completed for an aggregate of 40% or more of the outstanding VSE Stock;

Our stockholders approve an agreement to merge, consolidate, liquidate, or sell all or substantially all of our assets, unless after the merger or consolidation, VSE is the surviving corporation and more than 50% of the outstanding VSE Stock is beneficially owned by existing VSE stockholders immediately before the merger, consolidation or asset sale; or

·	Two or more directors are elected to the Board without having previously been nominated and approved by the Board members immediately prior to such election.

Executive Compensation Recovery

On March 6, 2013, the Board approved a new provision, sometimes referred to as a clawback provision, where in the event of a material misstatement of the Company's financial statements, as determined by the Company and confirmed by the Company's independent auditors, the Board, in its sole discretion, may direct the Company to recover all or a portion of incentive based compensation (including bonus payments, restricted Stock awards, and deferred supplemental compensation awarded to a current or former participant in the Plan). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this statement shall only apply to (a) a current or former participant who, as determined by the Board, was an "officer" (as defined in Section 16 of the Exchange Act) of the Company at the time of the award or anytime thereafter, and (b) a material misstatement of the Company's financial statements that occurred within three years preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare a restatement.

STOCK RETENTION GUIDELINES

To align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders, the Committee recommended and the Board approved Stock retention guidelines for directors and Restricted Stock Plan participants. Beyond the normal vesting schedule and two-year Stock sales restriction period, it is the Board's sense that the guidelines for restricted Stock retention be phased in over time. It is also the Board's intent that these guidelines be subject to annual Board review and, under certain circumstances, be subject to Board waiver. The recommended guidelines for the retention of restricted Stock are as follows:

Directors: each current director will be encouraged to retain VSE Stock of market value equivalent to five years of the director's cash portion of his or her annual retainer, excluding meeting fees. Any director appointed after the date of these guidelines will be expected to retain at least as much VSE Stock as the director's earned cumulative cash retainer until such time the market value of his or her VSE Stock is equal to at least five years of the director's cash portion of the retainer.

Management Team:

By the end of 2015:

CEO: the CEO is encouraged to retain VSE Stock of market value equal to five years of the CEO's current base salary.

Other NEOs: Each of the other NEOs is encouraged to retain VSE Stock with a market value equal to three years of the NEO's current base salary.

Corporate Officers other than NEOs: Each of these officers is encouraged to retain VSE Stock with a market value equal to two years of his or her current base salary.

Other Restricted Stock Plan participants: Each of these officers is encouraged to retain VSE Stock with a market value equal to one year of his or her current base salary.

While both directors and officers are encouraged to maintain and increase their VSE Stock positions, these guidelines are not intended for directors or officers to be obligated to purchase Stock on the open market to rebalance their holdings that may fall below the suggested guidelines referenced above as a result of unusual swings in the market value of VSE Stock during any particular period.

New directors and officers will be encouraged to retain their allocated Stock to achieve over time the suggested holding thresholds referenced above, but they will not be required to purchase Stock on the open market to achieve such thresholds.

Tax Deductibility

The Committee reviews and considers the deductibility of executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which provides that companies may not deduct compensation of more than $1,000,000 that is paid to certain individuals. We believe that compensation paid under our incentive plans is generally fully deductible for federal income tax purposes. However, in certain situations, the Committee may approve compensation that will not meet these requirements to ensure competitive levels of total compensation for its executive officers. For 2011, 2012 and 2013, we believe that all compensation paid to the NEOs is deductible for federal income tax purposes, except for DSC contributions that may not be deducted until distributed in accordance with Internal Revenue Service regulations.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee has reviewed the preceding Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the Chairman of the Committee has discussed its contents with VSE management. Based on the review and discussions, the Committee has recommended to the Board that this Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in the Proxy Statement.

Notes to Outstanding Equity Awards Table

1.	All options that were granted to the NEOs under VSE's 2004 Stock Option Plan had been exercised or expired on or before December 31, 2009. Therefore, no option data appears in the Table.

As discussed above, the Restricted Stock Plan provides for dollar-denominated awards that are subject to a three-year vesting schedule: one-third of the award vests after completion of VSE's annual financial audit and one-third on each of the next two anniversaries of such initial vesting date. As each third of the dollar-denominated award vests, the award is converted into restricted VSE Stock based on the fair market value (closing market price) of VSE Stock at the date of conversion. Accordingly, the number of shares of restricted Stock that have not vested is not currently determinable (see discussion above under "Executive Compensation Components—Long-Term Incentive Compensation"). The aggregate dollar-denominated value of all such awards that have not vested as of December 31, 2013, is reported in column (j) of the table.

Narrative to Outstanding Equity Awards Table

On December 30, 2005, the Board discontinued awarding options to purchase VSE Stock. Options outstanding as of December 30, 2005, were not affected by this Board action. See discussion above under "Executive Compensation Components—Long-Term Incentive Compensation."

Option Exercises and Stock Vested During Fiscal Year 2013 Table

The number of shares acquired pursuant to the Restricted Stock Plan on vesting reported in column (d) excludes the shares withheld for the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld by the Company under applicable law, as follows: Mr. Gauthier—2,079 shares, Mr. Loftus—979 shares, Mr. Kiernan—861 shares, Mr. Harris—253 shares and Mr. Flammang—242 shares. The value realized on vesting reported in column (e) represents the number of vested shares acquired valued at the closing market price for VSE Stock ($22.58 per share) on the vesting date (March 1, 2013), excluding the shares withheld for the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld by the Company under applicable law.

Pension Benefits

VSE does not provide pension arrangements or post-retirement health coverage for executives and employees. VSE and each of its wholly owned subsidiaries sponsor participation in the VSE Employee 401(k) Plan and each of VSE subsidiaries Energetics Incorporated and Akimeka, LLC sponsors a profit sharing plan. Each of the plans are IRS-qualified, defined contribution, money-purchase plans. VSE also has a nonqualified deferred compensation plan as discussed below.

Narrative to Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table

We have a non-qualified, non-contributory Deferred Supplemental Compensation Plan ("DSC Plan") for all of our officers which was adopted by the Board in 1994. The DSC Plan provides, at the Board's discretion, for an annual contribution to the plan not to exceed 12% of our consolidated net income for the year. Each officer's allocation from the annual contribution bears the same percentage to the annual contribution as that officer's salary bears to total annual officer salaries. For 2013 an annual contribution of 8% of our consolidated net income (approximately $1.8 million) was authorized and allocated to 35 participant accounts, including about $473,000 allocated to the NEOs' accounts.

Benefits under the plan are payable to the participant on retirement or resignation, subject to a vesting schedule, non-competition agreement, and other plan provisions, or if a change of control of VSE occurs. Our contributions to the DSC Plan are irrevocable and shall be used to pay benefits under the plan, subject to the claims of our general creditors.

Our annual contribution to the DSC Plan is deposited in a plan trust. The aggregate annual contribution is allocated for the benefit of each of the participants and credited to each of their respective Employer Contribution Accounts. Participants make investment elections for their respective account balances and annual contributions from a group of life insurance (COLI) investment funds managed by Lincoln Financial Group.

Potential Payments on Termination or Change of Control Table

The following table sets forth potential payments to our NEOs on termination of employment or a change of control of VSE. The amounts shown assume that such termination or termination on change of control was effective as of December 31, 2013, and are estimates of the amounts that would be paid to the NEOs on their termination. The actual amounts to be paid can only be determined at the time of such NEO's separation from VSE or any of our subsidiaries.

Notes to Potential Payments on Termination or Change of Control Table

The table excludes information with respect to contracts, agreements, plans, or arrangements to the extent they do not discriminate in scope, terms, or operation in favor of executive officers and that are available generally to all salaried employees—for example, qualified benefit plan distributions and payment for unused vacation pay.

2.	The information regarding Mr. Gauthier was based on his employment agreement, dated April 22, 2008 with VSE, prior to such agreement being amended and restated as of January 1, 2014.

Mr. Gauthier's amended and restated employment agreement with VSE, effective as of January 1, 2014, provides in the event of a termination on a change of control, that Mr. Gauthier would be paid (a) a severance payment equal to the lesser of (i) three times his base salary in effect as of the termination date or (ii) such amount as would not trigger the application of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code and (b) an annualized performance bonus for the year in which the termination occurred, based on an estimate of VSE's performance for the period before the termination date, as determined by the Compensation Committee, and on the terms and conditions of VSE's annual bonus plan, and prorated to reflect the number of days out of 365 during which Mr. Gauthier was employed by VSE during the year of termination.

Proposal No. 3

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO VSE'S 2006 RESTRICTED STOCK PLAN

We are requesting that stockholders vote in favor of amendments to our 2006 Restricted Stock Plan (the "Plan" or "Restricted Stock Plan") to (a) extend the term during which awards can be made under the Plan from May 3, 2016 to May 6, 2021 and (b) increase the VSE Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan from 250,000 shares to 500,000 shares, subject to adjustments for recapitalizations and certain other corporate transactions (collectively, the "Amendments"). The Amendments were approved by the Board on December 6, 2013, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee (for purposes of this Proposal, the "Committee"), subject to the approval of our stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

If the Amendments are approved by stockholders, the Company will be able to continue after May 3, 2016, as discussed below, granting to its employees, including NEOs and employees of subsidiaries of the Company, and non-employee directors of VSE, awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units that entitle the grantees to receive VSE Stock ("Awards"). As of the date of this Proxy Statement, 221,118 shares of Stock have been issued under the Plan since its effectiveness in May 2006 and 28,882 shares remain available for issuance pursuant to Awards that are granted on or before May 3, 2016. At the annual meeting held on May 3, 2011, the stockholders approved an amendment to the Plan extending its term from May 3, 2011 to May 3, 2016. As of March 24, 2014, there were 5,355,698 shares of Stock outstanding.

If the stockholders approve the Amendments, no more than 500,000 shares of Stock, including the 221,218 shares previously issued under the Plan and the 28,882 shares currently available for issuance under the Plan may be issued pursuant to Awards granted on or before May 6, 2021. Rights to receive VSE Stock under the Plan that are forfeited pursuant to the terms of an Award will be available again for grant and issuance under the Plan. If the stockholders do not approve the Amendments, the current Plan will continue in effect, subject to its existing terms and conditions, and no Awards will be granted under the Plan after May 3, 2016. VSE reserves the right to consider and adopt such other compensation plans and programs, as it may deem appropriate and in the best interest of VSE and its stockholders.

The purpose of the Plan is to promote VSE's ability to recruit and retain employees and non-employee directors and enhance the Company's growth and profitability by providing the incentive of long-term awards for continued employment and directorship and the attainment of performance objectives. In 2005 the Board determined that restricted stock is a more effective form of equity-based compensation than stock options and decided to discontinue awarding stock options under the Company's 2004 stock option plan, until and unless the Board approves otherwise. The Company's 2004 stock option plan will expire on May 3, 2014 with 560,000 shares unissued under the plan and no unexercised options outstanding under the plan. As with the Company's former use of stock options, the use of restricted stock or restricted stock units under the Plan is intended to promote a long-term focus on our performance and to provide our employees and non-employee directors with a means to have an equity stake in VSE that will, in turn, align their interest with those of our stockholders.

Upon expiration of the 2004 stock option plan on May 3, 2014, the Restricted Stock Plan will be the only compensation plan approved by the stockholders under which VSE equity securities are authorized for issuance to employees and directors. However, in addition to being requested to approve the Amendments (to the Restricted Stock Plan) at the Annual Meeting, the stockholders are being requested to approve an amendment to VSE's 2004 Non-Employees Stock Plan extending its term from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2018, with 69,238 shares of VSE Stock remaining for issuance thereunder to VSE's non-employee directors, as discussed below under "Proposal No. 4-Approval of an Amendment Extending VSE's 2004 Non-Employees Stock Plan." The Company does not have any equity compensation plan that has not been approved by its stockholders.

The Awards and other benefits that may be granted to participants in the Plan if the Amendments are approved are not determinable. Set forth below are the Awards made under the Plan to each of the following persons and groups for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. Except for the Awards granted to non-executive directors, the Awards reflected below are dollar-denominated in an amount equal to a percentage of a participant's base salary that can be earned based on VSE's level of achievement of ROE targets.

(a)	To the NEOs (1)(2): (i) Maurice A. Gauthier: $354,000 (ii) Thomas R. Loftus: $132,561,(iii) Thomas M. Kiernan: $106,001,(iv) John T. Harris: $129,938, and (v) Harry J. Flammang: $101,211;

(b)	To all current executive officers as a group (1)(2): Awards aggregating $986,094;

(c)	To all current directors who are not executive officers as a group (3): 16,100 shares based on Awards aggregating $413,448; and

(d)	To all employees, including all current officers who are not executive officers, as a group (1)(2): Awards aggregating $850,515.

Notes

The reflected Awards are dollar denominated grants that are subject to a three-year vesting schedule, with one-third vesting after completion of VSE's annual financial audit for the respective fiscal year and one third on each of the next two anniversaries of such initial vesting date, subject to continued employment with VSE. If an awardee is not employed by VSE on any of the three vesting dates, such awardee's unvested shares are forfeited. As each third of the dollar denominated Award vests, the Award is converted into restricted Stock based on the fair market value (closing market price) of the Stock on the conversion date. Accordingly, the number of shares of restricted Stock is not currently determinable.

2.	For a further discussion of the granting of Awards to the NEOs, including vesting and forfeiture, see above under "Compensation Discussion and Analysis-Executive Compensation Components-Restricted Stock" and "Executive Compensation."

Description of Plan

The following is a summary of the material features of the Plan, as it will be amended if the stockholders approve the Amendments. The following summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which, as proposed to be amended, is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix A and is hereby incorporated by reference.

Types of Awards; Eligibility. Awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units may be granted under the Plan ("Awards"). Awards of restricted stock are shares of VSE Stock that are awarded subject to such restrictions on transfer and such conditions of potential forfeiture as the Committee or Board may establish. Awards of restricted stock units are units valued by reference to the VSE Stock that a participant is entitled to receive, upon the settlement of the unit, after satisfaction of such conditions of potential forfeiture as the Committee or the Board may establish one share of VSE Stock for each unit. If the Amendments are approved by stockholders, VSE employees, including NEOs and employees of VSE subsidiaries and non-employee directors of VSE will be eligible to receive Awards under the Plan. As of March 24, 2014, potentially eligible 2014 Plan participants included 49 employees, including NEOs and eight non-employee directors.

VSE Stock Subject to the Plan. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, 221,118 shares of Stock have been issued under the Plan since its initial effectiveness in May 2006 and 28,882 shares remain available for issuance pursuant to Awards granted on or before May 3, 2016. If the Amendments are approved by the stockholders, no more than 500,000 shares of VSE Stock, including the shares previously issued under the Plan and shares currently available for issuance may be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan, subject to adjustments for recapitalizations and certain other corporate transactions. Shares issued under the Plan may be either treasury shares or shares originally issued for this purpose. Rights to receive shares forfeited pursuant to the terms of an Award will be available again for grant and issuance under the Plan.

Term of the Plan. No Awards may be granted under the Plan after May 6, 2021 (the fifth anniversary of the date on which the Plan as amended is approved by stockholders at the Annual Meeting).

Administration. The Plan will be administered by the Committee. The Board, however, will be responsible for administering any Awards granted to non-employee directors.

Terms of Awards. The terms and conditions of each Award of restricted stock or restricted stock units granted to an employee or non-employee director will be determined under the Plan. The Committee will determine the terms and conditions of each Award to an employee, including the period which generally will extend for at least six months from the date of grant, during which the recipient of an Award (the "Grantee") cannot sell, transfer, pledge or assign Awards (the "Restrictions"). The Committee will determine the rights that Grantees have with respect to Awards. Upon the grant of an Award of restricted stock, the Company will certificate the shares, but will not deliver such shares to the Grantee unless and until the Restrictions associated with the shares have been satisfied. When all Restrictions applicable to an Award lapse, the Company will deliver to the Grantee a certificate for the number of shares of VSE Stock without any legend or restriction (except as necessary to comply with applicable federal and state securities laws).

Typically, each December the Board makes a determination regarding the granting of Awards to non-employee directors. Each Award to a non-employee director of restricted stock will be fully vested on the grant date. Awards of restricted stock to a non-employee director will also contain other terms and conditions as determined by the Board.

Termination of Employment. If any Grantee's employment is terminated, all of his or her Awards that are still subject to vesting will be forfeited by the Grantee. With respect to any Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive Restrictions in whole or in part, other than in the event of a Grantee's retirement.

Withholding. Tax liabilities incurred in connection with the grant of an Award or its vesting or lapse of Restrictions or settlement will be satisfied by our withholding a portion of the shares subject to the Award that have a fair market value approximately equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be

withheld by VSE under applicable law. Subject to certain conditions specified in the Plan, a Grantee may elect to have taxes withheld in excess of the minimum amount required to be withheld or may satisfy his or her tax withholding in cash.

Adjustments. The aggregate number of shares of VSE Stock available for issuance under the Plan, the class of shares as to which awards may be granted and the number of shares covered by each outstanding Award are subject to adjustment in the event of a stock dividend, recapitalization or certain

other corporate transactions.

Terminating Events. In the event of our liquidation or a transaction or series of transactions in which an unaffiliated third party acquires VSE Stock ownership such that this person has the ability to direct the Company's management, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, the Committee may provide that upon consummation of such an event, any outstanding Awards will vest in full or in part or that all restricted stock or restricted stock units that have been previously deferred be transferred to the recipient.

Amendment or Termination. The Plan may be amended by the Board or the Committee and may be terminated by the Board at any time. No Award will be materially and adversely affected by any amendment or termination without the written consent of the recipient of the Award.

Section 16(b). Approval of the Awards under the Plan by the Board or the Committee (if composed of solely two or more non-employee directors) will exempt the acquisition of VSE Stock pursuant to the Plan by a VSE director or officer from the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Section 16(b) provides, among other things, that a director or officer who, within a six-month period, purchases and sells (or sells and purchases) the stock of a corporation that employs him or her is liable to the corporation for the difference between the purchase price and the sale price. Exchange Act Rule 16b-3 provides that the acquisition of stock by a director or officer of a corporation pursuant to an employee stock plan, including a plan such as the Plan, that meets certain requirements (including approval of Awards under the Plan by the Board or the Committee (if composed of solely two or more non-employee directors) ) is not subject to Section 16(b).

Restrictions on Resale. The Company intends to register the VSE Stock issuable under the Plan under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), as soon as practicable after the stockholders approve the Amendments. Certain officers may be deemed to be "affiliates" of VSE as that term is defined under the Securities Act. Stock acquired under the Plan by an affiliate may be reoffered or resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Code Section 162(m). Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), generally limits the allowable deduction for compensation paid to an officer of a publicly held corporation who is the chief executive officer or one of the four most highly compensated officers (other than the chief executive officer) to $1 million for each taxable year.

Certain types of compensation are exempted from the deduction limit imposed by Code Section 162(m), including payments contingent on the attainment of one or more performance goals if the performance goals are established by a compensation committee of the board of directors that is composed solely of two or more outside directors and the material terms of the compensation and performance goals are disclosed to and approved by the stockholders of the corporation before payment. In the case of an award of restricted stock or restricted stock units, a payment will satisfy the requirement that compensation be paid on the basis of a pre-established performance goal if the award is made by the compensation committee comprised solely of outside directors, and the plan is approved by the corporation's stockholders.

The Plan was designed to allow the Committee, in its sole discretion, to cause an Award thereunder to quality for the exemption from the $1 million aggregate limit on tax-deductible compensation payments under Code Section 162(m). Any Award that is designated to so qualify must include performance criteria that satisfy Code Section 162(m). Any Award intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" under Code Section 162(m), either will be conditioned on or granted based upon the achievement of one or more of the following performance measures, which shall be set by the Committee no later than 90 days following the commencement of each performance period (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Code Section 162(m): (a) total stockholder return, (b) stock price, (c) operating earnings, (d) net earnings, (e) return on equity or capital, (f) income, (g) level of expenses or (h) growth in revenue. Performance goals may be established on a Company-wide basis or with respect to one or more business units or divisions or subdivisions or subsidiaries. The targeted level or levels of performance (which may include minimum, maximum and target levels of performance) with respect to such performance measures may be established at such levels and in such terms as the Committee may determine, in its discretion. Each Award intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" will be subject to a $1 million per Award cap.

Following the completion of each performance period, the Committee will certify in writing whether the applicable performance targets have been achieved and the number of units or shares, if any, earned by a participant for such performance period. In determining the number of units or shares earned by a participant, for a given performance period, subject to any applicable Award agreement, the Committee shall have the right to reduce (but not increase) the amount earned at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may deem relevant to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the performance period. For Awards that are intended to qualify as "performance based compensation" the Committee has the authority to waive vesting conditions in the case of death, disability or a change of control of the Company, but not under any other circumstances.

Federal Income Taxation. The federal and state income tax consequences of restricted stock and restricted stock units are complex and subject to change. The following discussion is only a brief summary of the general U.S. federal income tax consequences of restricted stock and restricted stock units granted under the Plan and does not cover all specific transactions that may arise. A taxpayer's particular situation may be such that the general federal income tax rules described below may not apply. Also, this summary does not cover the state, local or foreign tax consequences of either the award of restricted stock or restricted stock units or the subsequent sale or other transfer of the underlying VSE Stock, or federal or state estate tax, inheritance or death taxes. Therefore, each participant in the Plan is urged to consult with his or her own tax advisor regarding federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences relating to participation in the Plan.

Restricted Stock. Generally, the grant of an award of restricted stock that is subject to restrictions on transfer and a substantial risk of forfeiture is not a taxable event. The recipient of the award will recognize ordinary compensation income in each year in which restrictions on the award lapse and the award vests, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the common stock received. An award of restricted stock that is fully vested on the grant date generally will be taxable to the recipient on such date. A recipient's basis for determining gain or loss on a subsequent disposition of common stock will be the amount the recipient must include in income when the restrictions lapse or when the award was granted, if not subject to restrictions. Any gain or loss recognized on a disposition of the common stock generally will be short-term or long-term capital gain or loss depending on the length of time the recipient holds the shares.

Restricted Stock Units. Generally, the grant of an award of restricted stock units is not a taxable event. The recipient of the award will recognize ordinary compensation income in each year in which the units are settled, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the common stock received. A recipient's basis for determining gain or loss on a subsequent disposition of common stock will be the amount the recipient must include in income when the units vest and are settled. Any gain or loss recognized on a disposition of the common stock generally will be short-term or long-term capital gain or loss depending on the length of time the recipient holds the shares.

Section 83(b) Election. If a recipient of an Award of restricted stock properly makes an election pursuant to Code Section 83(b), he or she will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the fair market value of the common stock at the time the Award is granted, without taking into account the effect of the restrictions on the Award. The recipient's basis for determining gain or loss on a subsequent disposition of shares will be the amount the recipient so included in income. Any gain or loss recognized on a disposition of VSE Stock that was subject to the Section 83(b) election will be short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, depending on the length of time since the date of the Award. If, however, the recipient forfeits an Award upon a termination of employment prior to the time the restrictions lapse, he or she will generally not be entitled to deduct any loss upon such forfeiture even though the recipient may have been required to include an amount in income by virtue of the Section 83(b) election.

Approval of the Amendments requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the VSE Stock present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to be cast at the Annual Meeting.

The Board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote "for" approval of the Amendments to the VSE Corporation 2006 Restricted Stock Plan.

Proposal No. 4

APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT EXTENDING VSE'S 2004 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS STOCK PLAN

We are requesting that stockholders vote in favor of extending the term of our 2004 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan (the "Directors Stock Plan") from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2018. The proposed extension of the Directors Stock Plan will not increase (or decrease) the number of shares of VSE Stock that were issuable under the plan immediately before it expired on December 31, 2013. The amendment to extend the term of the Directors Stock Plan from December 31, 2013 to May 6, 2018 was approved by the Board on December 6, 2013, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, subject to the approval of the stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

The Board believes it is desirable that individuals who serve as directors, but who are not employees, of VSE ("non-employee directors") have a financial interest in VSE's performance. Effective January 1, 2014, each non-employee director is paid an annual cash retainer of $40,000, and $1,000 for each Board meeting attended, and each Board committee member is paid $1,000 for each committee meeting attended. Each non-employee director also received in respect of 2013 an annual award under VSE's 2006 Restricted Stock Plan of such number of shares of VSE Stock equal to $60,000 divided by the per share closing price of VSE Stock on the first trading day of 2014, rounded to the nearest 100 shares. The chairman of the Board's Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee were each paid an additional annual fee of $12,000, $10,000 and $5,000, respectively, for 2013. The Chairman of the Board was also paid $60,000 for serving in such capacity during 2013.

Each non-employee director was permitted to elect to receive all or a portion of his or her annual compensation in VSE Stock pursuant to the Directors Stock Plan. No such elections were made in 2013.

For further information regarding the compensation of our Non-Employee Directors, see the section "Compensation of Non-Employee Directors for 2013 under Proposal No. 1, Election of Directors."

The following summary of the Directors Stock Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Directors Stock Plan which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix B and is hereby incorporated by reference.

Administration. The Directors Stock Plan is administered by the Board. The Board, however, will only have the authority to determine terms and conditions of the VSE Stock issuances to non-employee directors under the Directors Stock Plan to the extent such terms and conditions are not otherwise stated in the Directors Stock Plan.

Eligibility. All non-employee directors will be eligible to participate in the Directors Stock Plan. VSE currently has eight non-employee directors.

Stock Subject to Directors Stock Plan. Upon effectiveness in May 2004, a total of 100,000 shares of VSE Stock (giving effect to a subsequent stock dividend) were available for issuance under the Directors Stock Plan. As of December 31, 2013, a total of 69,238 shares of VSE Stock remained available for issuance under the Directors Stock Plan and if the stockholders approve the extension of the term of the plan, a total of 69,238 shares will remain available for issuance under the plan. If, however, any change is made to the VSE Stock subject to the Directors Stock Plan, whether by reason of recapitalization, stock split or reverse, combination or exchange of shares, or other capital change affecting the VSE Stock, the Board is authorized to make appropriate adjustments to the maximum number of shares subject to the Directors Stock Plan.

Section 16(b). Exchange Act Rule 16 b-3 will exempt the acquisition of shares pursuant to the Directors Stock Plan by a VSE non- employee director from the provisions of Section 16(b). Section 16(b) provides, among other things, that a director who, within a six-month period, purchases and sells (or sells and purchases) the stock of a corporation which employs him or her is liable to the corporation for the difference between the purchase price and the sale price.

Restrictions on Resale. The Company intends to register the VSE Stock issuable under the Directors Stock Plan under the Securities Act as soon as practicable after the stockholders approve the extension of the plan. Certain non-employee directors may be deemed to be "affiliates" of VSE as that term is defined under the Securities Act. Stock acquired under the Directors Stock Plan by an affiliate may be reoffered or resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Amendments and Termination. The Board may from time to time alter, amend, suspend, or discontinue the Directors Stock Plan. Unless terminated earlier by the Board, the Directors Stock Plan will terminate on December 31, 2018.

Federal Income Tax Consequences. The following is a brief summary of certain federal income tax consequences relating to Stock issued under the Directors Stock Plan. The summary does not purport to be complete, is solely for general information and does not make any specific representations to any participant. The tax treatment under foreign, state or local law is not covered in this summary. In addition, tax laws are subject to change at any time. Therefore, each participant is urged to consult with his or her own tax adviser for counseling regarding federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences relating to participation in the Directors Stock Plan.

Under the current provisions of the Code, a non-employee director will realize taxable compensation equal to the value of any cash received plus the value of the Stock delivered in payment of his or her annual retainer. The tax basis for such Stock will equal the number of the shares received multiplied by the fair market value of the Stock on the date of the allocation. If such Stock is subsequently sold, the non-employee director will realize a capital gain (or loss) equal to an amount which the proceeds of the sale exceed (or are less than) the basis for such Stock.

Approval of the extension of the Directors Stock Plan requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the VSE Stock present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to be cast at the Annual Meeting.

The Board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote "for" the approval of the extension of the VSE Corporation 2004 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan.

Proposal No. 5

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Exchange Act requires that we include in this Proxy Statement a non-binding advisory stockholders vote on our executive compensation as described in this Proxy Statement (commonly referred to as "Say-on-Pay") and a non-binding stockholders vote to advise on whether the Say-on-Pay vote should occur every one, two or three years (commonly referred to as "Say When on Pay").

We encourage stockholders to review the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" and the "Executive Compensation" sections of this Proxy Statement. VSE's consistent value creation over the long term is reinforced by and aligned with the executive compensation program. We believe the program strikes the appropriate balance between utilizing responsible, measured pay practices and effectively incentivizing our executives to dedicate themselves fully to value creation for our stockholders. This balance is evidenced by the following:

·	We provide a significant part of executive compensation in performance based incentives, including performance VSE Stock. Payouts of performance Stock are based on achievement of financial objectives over three years and are capped at 100% of the Stock awards.

·	We have annual award and three-year payout cycles for performance Stock.

·	We respond to economic conditions appropriately, such as holding base salaries and bonuses of the NEOs in 2012, reflecting lower year-over-year results.

·	We do not provide tax gross-ups to our NEOs.

The Board strongly endorses the Company's executive compensation program and recommends that the stockholders vote in favor of the following resolution:

RESOLVED, that the stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the NEOs as described in this Proxy Statement under "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" and "Executive Compensation," including the related tabular and narrative disclosure contained in this Proxy Statement.

Because the vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon the Board or the Compensation Committee and neither the Board nor the Compensation Committee will be required to take any action as a result of the outcome of the vote on this proposal. The Compensation Committee will, however, carefully consider the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation arrangements.

The approval of the advisory resolution on the Company's compensation of executive officers requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the Stock present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

The Board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote "for" the approval of the Company's executive compensation.

Proposal No. 6

VOTE ON FREQUENCY OF ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

As mentioned above, the Exchange Act requires that we include in this Proxy Statement a separate non-binding stockholder vote to advise on whether the Say-on-Pay vote should occur every one, two or three years. You have the option to vote for any one of the three options, or to abstain on the matter.

After careful consideration of this proposal, our Board has determined that an advisory stockholders vote on executive compensation that occurs once every year is the most appropriate alternative for our Company at this time, and therefore our Board recommends an annual stockholders vote for the advisory vote on executive compensation. Also, we welcome communications with our stockholders as frequently as possible to be advised on matters that concern them.

In formulating its recommendation, our Board considered that an annual advisory stockholders vote on executive compensation provides the highest level of communication with our stockholders by allowing them to provide us with their direct input on our NEOs, as disclosed in VSE's proxy statement, every year. Additionally, an annual advisory vote on executive compensation is consistent with our belief that engagement with our stockholders is a component of our corporate governance and our practice of seeking input from, and engaging in discussions with, our stockholders on corporate governance matters.

In the future we may determine that a less frequent advisory vote is appropriate, either in response to the vote of our stockholders on this proposal or for other reasons.

Stockholders may cast their vote on the preferred voting frequency by choosing the option of one year, two years, three years or abstain from voting when voting on this proposal. The option of one year, two years or three years that receives a majority of votes cast by stockholders will be the frequency for the advisory vote on executive compensation that has been recommended by stockholders. However, because this vote is advisory and not binding on our Board in any way, our Board may decide that it is in the best interests of our stockholders and the Company to hold an advisory vote on executive compensation more or less frequently than the option approved by our stockholders.

The Board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote to conduct an advisory stockholders vote on executive compensation every year.

Time of Grant. No Awards shall be granted after the seventh anniversary of the Effective Date.

(c)

Awards and Agreements. Each Grantee shall be provided with an agreement specifying the terms and conditions of an Award. In addition, a certificate shall be issued to each Grantee in respect of Restricted Stock subject to an Award. Such certificate shall be registered in the Grantee's name and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to such Award. The Company may require that the certificate evidencing such Restricted Stock be held by the Company until all restrictions on such Restricted Stock have lapsed.

A-5

(d)

Restrictions. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the Award, the Committee may establish a period commencing with the Date of Grant during which the Grantee shall not be permitted to sell, transfer, pledge or assign Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan.

(e)

Vesting / Lapse of Restrictions. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the Award, a Vesting Date for Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units subject to an Award shall occur at such time or times and on such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine and as are set forth in the Award; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided by the Committee, a Vesting Date shall occur only if the Grantee is an employee of a Participating Company as of such Vesting Date, and has been an employee of a Participating Company continuously from the Date of Grant. The Award may provide for Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units to vest in installments, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive, in whole or in part, any remaining conditions to vesting with respect to such Grantee's Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units.

(f)

Rights of the Grantee. Grantees may have such rights with respect to Shares subject to an Award as may be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award, including the right to vote such Shares, and the right to receive dividends paid with respect to such Shares. A Grantee whose Award consists of Restricted Stock Units shall not have the right to vote or to receive dividend equivalents with respect to such Restricted Stock Units.

(g)

Termination of Grantee's Employment. A transfer of an Eligible Employee between two employers, each of which is a Participating Company, shall not be deemed a termination of employment. If a Grantee terminates employment with all Participating Companies, all Restricted Shares or Restricted Stock Units as to which a Vesting Date has not occurred shall be forfeited by the Grantee and deemed canceled by the Company.

(h)

Delivery of Shares. When a Vesting Date occurs with respect to all or a portion of an Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, the Company shall notify the Grantee that a Vesting Date has occurred, and shall deliver to the Grantee (or the Grantee's Successor-in-Interest) a certificate for the number of Shares as to which a Vesting Date has occurred (or in the case of Restricted Stock Units, the number of Shares represented by such Restricted Stock Units) without any legend or restrictions (except those that may be imposed by the Committee, in its sole judgment, under Section 8(a)). All Awards shall be settled no later than the March 15^th following the calendar year in which such Award is vested. The right to payment of any fractional Shares that may have accrued shall be satisfied in cash, measured by the product of the fractional amount times the Fair Market Value of a Share at the Vesting Date, as determined by the Committee.

(i)

Qualified Performance-Based Awards. A Subcommittee of the Committee ("Subcommittee"), comprised solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors who otherwise meet the requirements of being "outside directors" as defined in Code Section 162(m), may designate whether any Award granted to a Senior Executive is intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Code Section 162(m).

A-6

(i)

Any Award designated as intended to be performance-based compensation shall be, to the extent required by Code Section 162(m) either (A) conditioned upon the achievement of one or more of the following performance measures, or (B) granted based upon the achievement of one or more of the following performance measures: total shareholder return, stock price, operating earnings, net earnings, return on equity or capital, income, level of expenses, growth in revenue, or other performance measures deemed by the Subcommittee to be appropriate. The provisions describing the performance goals associated with an Award to a Senior Executive must be expressed in an objective rather than subjective manner such that a Third Party having knowledge of the relevant performance results could calculate the extent, if any, to which an Award has become vested. Performance goals may be established on a Company-wide basis or with respect to one or more business units or divisions or subsidiaries. The targeted level or levels of performance (which may include minimum, maximum and target levels of performance) with respect to such performance measures may be established at such levels and in such terms as the Subcommittee may determine, in its discretion, including in absolute terms, as a global performance in prior periods, or as a goal compared to the performance of one or more comparable companies or an index covering multiple companies. When establishing performance goals for a performance period, the Subcommittee may exclude any or all "extraordinary items" as determined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles including, the charges or costs associated with restructurings of the Company, discontinued operations, other unusual or non-recurring items, and the cumulative effects of accounting changes. The Subcommittee may also adjust the performance goals for any performance period as it deems equitable in recognition of unusual or non-recurring events affecting the Company, changes in applicable tax laws or accounting principles, or such factors as the Subcommittee may determine; including, any adjustments that would result in the Company paying non-deductible compensation to a Participant. For any Award subject to such pre-established formula, no more than $1,000,000 can be paid in satisfaction of such Award to any Senior Executive.

(ii)

Any Award that is intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" shall also be subject to the following:

(A)

No later than 90 days following the commencement of each performance period (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Code Section 162(m)), the Subcommittee shall, in writing, (1) grant a target number of shares or units, (2) select the performance goal or goals applicable to the performance period and (3) specify the relationship between performance goals the number of shares or units that may be earned by a Participant for such performance period.

(B)

Following the completion of each performance period, the Subcommittee shall certify in writing whether the applicable performance targets have been achieved and the number of units or shares if any, earned by a Participant for such performance period. All decisions by the Subcommittee as to the terms and conditions of an Award and the extent to which an Award has become vested shall be binding and conclusive on the Senior Executives.

(C)

In determining the number of units or shares earned by a Participant for a given performance period, subject to any applicable Award Agreement, the Subcommittee shall have the right to reduce (but not increase) the amount earned at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Subcommittee may deem relevant to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the performance period.

A-7

(D)

In the case of Senior Executives being granted Awards subject to Section 7(i) at least six months must elapse from the date of the grant of the Award to the date of disposition of underlying Shares.

(j)

Death or Disability. The Committee may, in its discretion, waive the Vesting Date or any restrictions imposed on an Award in the event of the death or disability of a Participant (each as determined by the Committee, in its discretion). Exercise of such discretion by the Committee in any individual case, however, shall not be deemed to require, or to establish a precedent suggesting such exercise in any other case.

8. Securities Laws; Taxes

(a)

Securities Laws. The Committee shall have the power to make each grant of Awards under the Plan subject to such conditions as it deems necessary or appropriate to comply with the then existing requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, including Rule 16b-3. Such conditions may include the delivery by the Grantee of an investment representation to the Company in connection with a Vesting Date occurring with respect to Shares subject to an Award, or the execution of an agreement by the Grantee to refrain from selling or otherwise disposing of the Shares acquired for a specified period of time or on specified terms.

(b)

Taxes. Subject to the rules of Section 8(c), the Company shall be entitled, if necessary or desirable, to withhold the amount of any tax, charge or assessment attributable to the grant of any Award or the occurrence of a Vesting Date with respect to any Award. The Company shall not be required to deliver Shares pursuant to any Award until it has been indemnified to its satisfaction for any such tax, charge or assessment.

(c)

Payment of Tax Liabilities; Election to Withhold Shares or Pay Cash to Satisfy Tax Liability.

(i)

In connection with the grant of any Award or the occurrence of a Vesting Date under any Award, the Company shall have the right to (A) require the Grantee to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state or local withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery or transfer of any certificate or certificates for Shares subject to such Award, or (B) take any action whatever that it deems necessary to protect its interests with respect to tax liabilities. The Company's obligation to make any delivery or transfer of Shares shall be conditioned on the Grantee's compliance, to the Company's satisfaction, with any withholding requirement.

(ii)

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8(c)(ii), any tax liabilities incurred in connection with grant of any Award or the occurrence of a Vesting Date under any Award under the Plan shall be satisfied by the Company's withholding a portion of the Shares subject to such Award having a Fair Market Value approximately equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld by the Company under applicable law, unless otherwise determined by the Committee with respect to any Grantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may permit a Grantee to elect one or both of the following: (A) to have taxes withheld in excess of the minimum amount required to be withheld by the Company under applicable law; provided that the Grantee certifies in writing to the Company at the time of such election that the Grantee owns Other Available Shares having a Fair Market Value that is at least equal to the Fair Market Value to be withheld by the Company in payment of withholding taxes in excess of such minimum amount; and (B) to pay to the Company in cash all or a portion of the taxes to be withheld in connection with such grant or Vesting Date. In all cases, the Shares so withheld by the Company shall have a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the amount of taxes to be withheld minus the cash payment, if any, made by the Grantee. Any election pursuant to this Section 8(c)(ii) must be in writing made prior to the date specified by the Committee, and in any event prior to the date the amount of tax to be withheld or paid is determined. An election pursuant to this Section 8(c)(ii) may be made only by a Grantee or, in the event of the Grantee's death, by the Grantee's legal representative. No Shares withheld pursuant to this Section 8(c)(ii) shall be available for subsequent grants under the Plan. The Committee may add such other requirements and limitations regarding elections pursuant to this Section 8(c)(ii) as it deems appropriate.

Such election shall be made in writing and provided to the Corporate Secretary by November 1 of each year or such other date as the Board may determine, provided such date is at least 30 days prior to the date on which the fair market value of the Company Stock is determined pursuant to Section 7(a) of this Plan. If any Participant fails to provide the above-mentioned written election by the date referenced in the preceding sentence, such Participant's annual retainer fee shall be paid fully in cash for the particular year. If not enough Company Stock is available to satisfy one or more Participant's Stock Portion elections in respect of a year, such elections shall be automatically adjusted, on a pro rata basis, to match the amount of shares of Company Stock available hereunder, in proportion to the number of shares of Company Stock each Participant would have received in respect of his or her election as if sufficient Company Stock was available for all elections.

Company Stock is allocated to Participants at its fair market value as of the date of allocation. "Fair Market Value" means on any given date, the closing price of the Company Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market System ("Nasdaq") for the date in question. If no sales of Company Stock were made on Nasdaq on that date, the closing price of a share of Company Stock as reported on Nasdaq for the preceding day on which sales of Company Stock were made on Nasdaq shall be substituted.

b.	No fractional shares shall be allocated.

c.	Any residual cash balance may be credited to Participants or distributed along with the Cash Portion in the Board's sole discretion.
