Why VeteransWhy Veterans

HH istorically, veterans have contributed to the well being ofthe na!on by bringing to the civilian workforce, job per‐formance quali!es that underscore posi!ve characteris!cs

they developed while in military service. Leadership, dedica!onand discipline are common traits that have helped transformAmerica’s global economic status. It has also contributed to diver‐sity being accepted in the American workplace. Addi!onally, mil‐itary research and applied technological innova!on have resultedin innova!on that have produced the earliest computers, used tocrack codes and simulate nuclear explosions. The Internet was alsodeveloped as a result of a military research project.

Throughout the 20th and now the 21st century, technological in‐nova!on’s intended use was not just designed to create an efficientand effec!ve figh!ng force. Innova!on in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) have over the

decades been integrated into our consumer lifestyle as a result ofits use in the Military. Computer simula!on so&ware programs,commercial naviga!on systems, medical treatments for pain, aswell as popular types of transporta!on vehicles and communica‐!on systems are all part of the legacy of the military‐consumercomplex.

Impressively, the men and women of America's armed forces haveremained adap!ve and competent in their opera!on of exis!ngand emerging technologies deployed by the military throughoutour recent history. It is for this reason, that the men and womenwho have performed extraordinarily well on behalf of our country,are deserving of jobs, careers and business/enterprise opportuni‐!es in technology driven industries that produce products that arerooted in military innova!on and development. As a result, “TheNew Millennium Veteran.” is prepared and ready to forward theAmerican dream.
