Veteran's Day or Veterans Day? According to the US Department of Veterans Affairs, "Veterans Day does not include an apostrophe but does include an 's' at the end of 'veterans' because it is not a day that 'belongs' to veterans, it is a day for honoring all veterans." So, the answer there is Veterans Day. How do you greet others on Veterans Day? Make your words work for you and for those you are honoring. It can be a little too easy to say "thank you for your service" and move on. Try a few more meaningful words, such as "thank you for your sacrifice" or "thank you for your valor." This is also a good time to engage in a meaningful conversation with a veteran. What is his or her story? What challenges did they face in the service and are still dealing with now? Show respect, engage with empathy, pay attention, and truly listen with intent. You will both benefit greatly. #veteransday2023 #thankyou #words #meaningfulconversations #realcommunications

As Veterans Day falls tomorrow on a Saturday, our nation observes Veterans Day on Friday. Let's pause to express our deepest gratitude to the brave men and women who have served our great nation. Your commitment to protecting our freedoms has not gone unnoticed, and we are immensely thankful for your service. In honor of Veterans Day, here are three fun facts that highlight the contributions of our veterans: 1. Did you know that veterans bring a wealth of skills and talents to the workforce? From leadership and teamwork to problem-solving and adaptability, their military experience translates seamlessly into the business world. 2. Many veterans transition into entrepreneurship after their military service. In fact, veteran-owned businesses play a significant role in the U.S. economy. 3. While their military service may come to an end, the spirit of service lives on in veterans. Many continue to positively impact their communities through volunteer work, mentorship, and leadership roles. To all the veterans out there, thank you for your service, dedication, and the invaluable contributions you make to our nation.

On Veterans Day we thank those in uniform serving today and those who have served in the past for their sacrifice. There are more than 16 million veterans in the United States, which is over 6% of the total civilian population age 18 and over. An unknown author said, “We don’t know them all, but we owe them all.” Until 1954, Veterans Day was known as “Armistice Day,” celebrating the armistice agreement that ended WWI on November 11, 1918. In 1954, President Eisenhower had the name changed to Veterans Day. In his 2023 Veterans Day Proclamation, President Biden wrote, “This Veterans Day, we honor the generations of women and men who have served and sacrificed — not for a person, a place, or a President — but for an idea unlike any other: the idea of the United States of America…Our veterans and their families give so much to our Nation, and we owe them a debt we can never fully repay… “This Veterans Day, may we honor the incredible faith that our veterans hold, not just in our country but in all of us. They are the solid-steel backbone of our Nation, and we must endeavor to continue being worthy of their sacrifices by working toward a more perfect Union and protecting the freedoms that they have fought to defend…I encourage all Americans to recognize the valor, courage, and sacrifice of these patriots through appropriate ceremonies and private prayers and by observing two minutes of silence for our Nation’s veterans.” Full Presidential Veterans Day Proclamation: https://lnkd.in/dH_GDCEC. #USArmySignalCorps #Signalcorps #USARMY @US_CYBERCOM @ARCYBER @armyfutures @Signal_School @US_CYBERCOM #VeteransDay

They open up about their experiences and how the skills acquired during their service have guided them into a career in #cybersecurity

As Veterans Day approaches, I am reminded of the enduring spirit of service that characterizes not just a day on the calendar but a lifelong commitment for those of us who have worn our nation’s uniform. Service, for veterans, is an unspoken promise—a dedication to something greater than ourselves. It's about teamwork, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. It’s about embracing challenges with the knowledge that each one presents an opportunity for growth and learning. In my journey from military life to entrepreneurship, the lessons of service have been my guiding principles. They have shaped my business ethos, fostering a culture of integrity, discipline, and relentless determination. These are the values that we, as veterans, bring to the table every day. On this Veterans Day, let's remember that our service does not end when we hang up our uniforms. We continue to serve—our communities, our teams, and our enterprises—with the same honor and commitment that defined our time in the armed forces. To my fellow veterans, use this day to reflect on the extraordinary value you continue to add to our national identity and the economy, every day. Your strength and experience are integral to the fabric of our society. Let’s continue to lead by example, drawing on our shared legacy of service to inspire a brighter future for all. #VeteransDay #Service #VeteranOwnedBusiness #ThankYouVeterans 🇺🇸
