Happy Veteran's Day to all our brave military members and their families! Today, we pause to express our deepest gratitude for the sacrifices you make to protect our freedoms. Your unwavering commitment inspires us every day.
When I taught high school, I had the incredible privilege of inviting my husband to Zoom into my classes. He shared his experience serving as an Honor Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
My students, who were often too cool for traditional learning, became captivated. They asked thoughtful, meaningful questions about his role and the dedication required. It was a profound moment that connected them to the realities of service and sacrifice.
In my career, I’ve had the honor of creating resumes for outstanding leaders who serve or have served our country. Each resume tells a story of resilience, leadership, and dedication.
Although I cannot disclose the humbling details of their daily lives, their commitment to serving 24/7 is something we all owe a debt of gratitude. The strength and selflessness they exhibit are unparalleled.
Veteran’s Day is more than just a holiday. It’s a day to reflect on the extraordinary courage of those who put their lives on the line for our nation. From active-duty soldiers to veterans, each individual plays a vital role in safeguarding our freedom.
Their families also deserve recognition. The strength and sacrifices of military families often go unnoticed but are no less significant.
Looking for ways to honor veterans? Here are a few simple yet meaningful gestures:
Say Thank You: A heartfelt thank you can mean the world to a veteran.
