Veterans Day: Honoring Our Employees’ Service
Veterans Day: Honoring Our Employees’ Service
On Veterans Day, we honor the veterans in our family of companies and take time to reflect on the significance of this important day. Originally known as Armistice Day, it was first recognized in 1919 to mark the end of World War I. In 1954, it was renamed Veterans Day to honor all who have served in the U.S. military, expanding beyond World War I veterans to include those who have defended our country in every branch of the armed forces. Today, we proudly thank our employees from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Space Force, recognizing not only their commitment to protecting our nation but also the unique skills, leadership, and dedication they bring to their roles with us. Their service enriches our organization, and we are grateful for the impact they continue to make each day.
We encourage you to pause and thank the veterans of ACRT who dedicated themselves to serving our country.
