On November 11, we honor the men and women who have served, and are currently serving our country in the armed forces. Veterans Day is a time to reflect and give thanks for their courage, bravery, and sacrifice.
For those visiting our offices this month, you may notice green lights in our lobby. This is in recognition of the national campaign Greenlight a Vet. This campaign began as a way to establish visible national support for our veterans. As a color of hope, renewal and well-being, the simple act of changing one light to green creates a symbol of recognition and appreciation. To learn more please visit www.greenlightavet.com.
