November 11 is commemorated as Veterans Day,
in honor of all those who have served our nation. We must ensure that the service and sacrifice of our veterans is never overlooked or forgotten. The Army believes that every Soldier is a “Soldier for Life” and the Army is committed to supporting our veterans with opportunities for employment and education.
- On Veterans Day, we honor the brave men and women from all walks of life who have stepped forward to defend our nation throughout our history.
- The U.S. has been at war for more than 19 years. We now have the largest population of young veterans since the Vietnam War. We owe it to these men and women to make sure they transition from active duty careers with the skills and experience to find meaningful employment.
- The Army’s Soldier for Life program links transitioning Soldiers to employment and education opportunities and encourages veterans to remain connected to the Army.
