HAPPY MONDAY/HAPPY ARMED FORCES DAY!!!!! On this day in 1950, President Harry S. Truman established Armed Forces Day. Peering through literature reviews gives you a different view of those who served. When you FOCUS, you find that these leaders cared about the military. The theme of the first Armed Forces Day was “Teamed for Defense,” and it had a three-fold mission:   1. To celebrate and recognize all Americans serving in uniform, as well as those who had served before. 2. To bring citizens closer to their military by hosting base open houses and public displays of new military technology.  3. To promote the unity of the military services established in the National Security Act of 1947. #A1CLorenzoRWilson

“You can’t get ahead if you’re always starting over." - Jennifer Goodale. Great article expressing the struggle of military spouses creating and sustaining their own careers. Well done, Military Officers Association of America (MOAA). I'd like to highlight an additional valuable resource: the FourBlock Military Spouse Career Readiness program. Although it doesn't focus on policy or legislation, this program empowers military spouses by helping them define their career visions and build the necessary toolkit to achieve their goals. Often, military spouses put their own aspirations on hold to support the military's needs, leading to a loss of personal identity. The collaboration with Prepare to Launch U reignites their confidence, helps them recognize their talents, and equips them to advocate for themselves in the workplace. 🔗https://lnkd.in/gbex3bBu #MilitarySpouses #MilitarySpouseEmployment
