Panelists at the North Carolina Defense Summit provided conversation surrounding best practices for military/defense research and innovation. They shared that leveraging partnerships between military and state capabilities presents a unique avenue to enhance defense operations.

HONORING THE VALOR OF OUR VETERANS​

Today, on Veterans Day, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our nation with unwavering valor. Originally observed as Armistice Day, marking the end of World War I, it's a solemn reminder of sacrifices made and the enduring spirit of those who've donned our nation's uniform. We owe them an unpayable debt. ​

To all our veterans, past and present, thank you for your service.

CELEBRATING THE MARINE CORPS BIRTHDAY​

Today the United States Marine Corps marks its 248th anniversary, a testament to its storied history and the unwavering dedication of its members. Since its inception in 1775, the Marine Corps has played a pivotal role in shaping the course of American military history. ​

Today, its legacy continues with over 42,000 active-duty Marines stationed in North Carolina alone. These Marines, along with their counterparts across the globe, exemplify the core values of honor, courage, and commitment, and their service ensures the legacy of the Corps will endure for generations to come.

HONORING THOSE DEPLOYED AROUND THE WORLD​

​The National Day of the Deployed is observed annually on October 26th in the United States to honor the brave men and women who have been deployed in service to their country. The day was first observed in 2006 in North Dakota, and it has since spread across the nation as a time to recognize and appreciate the sacrifices made by military service members who are away from home, fulfilling their duties. Families, friends, and communities come together on this day to send care packages, hold ceremonies, and participate in other acts of support and gratitude. ​

​Today serves not only to thank those who are currently deployed but also to remind the public of the ongoing commitments and challenges faced by military personnel and their loved ones.

GOLD STAR MOTHER'S AND FAMILY'S DAY​

The last Sunday in September is recognized as Gold Star Mother's and Family's Day. This day is dedicated to recognizing the pain, grief, and sacrifices endured by mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, brothers, and sisters who have lost a family member in service.​

The term "gold star" originated during World War I when families displayed blue stars for each family member serving in the armed forces. If a service member died in action, the blue star was replaced with a gold star, signifying their ultimate sacrifice for the nation.​

Gold star families, which include spouses, children, parents, siblings, and others who have lost a loved one in service, are integral to our country's military community and history. Today we honor the nation's Gold Star Mothers and Families.

HONORING SACRIFICES, REMEMBERING THE MISSING​

Today marks National POW/MIA Recognition Day, a solemn observance dedicated to paying tribute to the courageous Americans who endured the hardships of being prisoners of war and to raising awareness about those still unaccounted for.​

This day serves as a poignant reminder of the tens of thousands who remain missing from significant conflicts such as World War II, the Cold War, Korean War, the Vietnam War, and other designated conflicts. The Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency plays a vital role in providing the fullest possible accounting for our missing personnel to their families and the entire nation. As of May 22, 2023, the number of American service members missing surpasses 81,000.

​We recognize the commitment and courage shown by the first responders and service members who fearlessly stepped forward to defend our freedom. From North Carolina, military forces were deployed to Afghanistan and the Middle East within days of the attacks.​

NORTH CAROLINA COMBATS TEACHER SHORTAGE WITH MILITARY LICENSE TRANSFER​

The North Carolina State Board of Education adopted a provision from the "Veterans Auto and Education Improvement Act of 2022” that creates an easier pathway for military personnel and military spouses to be hired as licensed educators.​

Last fall, there were 5,091 vacant teaching positions in the state, marking a 58.4% increase from the previous year. While low pay and uncompetitive benefits have been identified as contributing factors to the shortfall, state education leaders are hopeful that a new federal provision will alleviate the problem by making it easier for licensed teachers, especially military personnel and their spouses, to fill these vacancies.​

BRIDGING THE GAP FOR VETERANS IN THE WORKFORCE

Despite veterans bringing diverse experiences, skills, and training to the job market, hiring managers often struggle to understand the relevance of these attributes. To successfully integrate veterans into the workforce, both public and private sectors must recognize their value and prioritize investments in vocational training, apprenticeships, and education resources. Veterans possess valuable soft skills and adaptability that make them excellent employees, and recognizing these attributes is key to their successful integration into civilian workplaces.

The American Legion recognizes the challenge veterans face in translating their military skills to the civilian workforce when seeking employment. Read more about their work to support veterans transitioning to the civilian workforce:

Veterans face hurdles in transitioning into the civilian workforce, but The American Legion and others stress the vast skillsets that former military members bring to the job market.
