We at Black Rifle Coffee believe Veteran’s Day is a celebration. As we approach November 11th we want to start recognizing what Veteran’s Day means to us and to those who serve. For BRCC, Veteran’s Day is a celebration of service members past and present who made the decision to serve their community and their nation. It’s an appreciation and recognition of family members who endured deployments as well as the uncertainty and discomfort of military life. It’s remembering those who fought our nation’s toughest battles, often receiving life altering injuries that they bare for the rest of their lives. It’s a celebration of those who find life after the military, in business, in philanthropy or in retirement. Black Rifle Coffee began when a group of Veteran’s joined forces to create something unique. For us, Veteran’s Day isn’t just a celebration of Veterans, it’s a celebration of who we are.

Memorial Day, from the perspective of a veteran, is a solemn day of remembrance and honor. It’s a day to reflect on the sacrifices of those who have fallen in the line of duty, protecting the freedoms and values we hold dear. For veterans who have experienced the realities of war firsthand, Memorial Day carries a profound significance that goes beyond the typical celebrations and gatherings. It’s a day marked by memories of comrades who never made it home, whose laughter and courage are remembered in the quiet moments of a veteran’s heart. It’s a time to think about the families left behind, the empty seats at dinner tables, and the personal stories of bravery that ended too soon. Veterans understand the weight of loss and the price of freedom in a way that is deeply personal and often painful. Memorial Day is not about the living; it’s about honoring those who have given their lives for something greater than themselves. It’s about the men and women buried in cemeteries across the nation, who were more than just soldiers; they were loved ones, friends, and family. For veterans, the day may also bring a mix of emotions, including pride in their service and a sense of camaraderie with those who understand the cost of war. Yet, it can also be a challenging time, as the focus on military service and sacrifices can trigger memories and emotions related to their own experiences. As a nation, we can honor the true meaning of Memorial Day by participating in commemorative activities, observing moments of silence, and supporting organizations that provide resources and support to veterans and their families. It’s a day to ensure that the legacy of the fallen is not forgotten but is carried forward with respect and gratitude for the freedoms their sacrifices have secured.

CEO McAfee Institute | Leadership, Investigations, & Intelligence Expert | Certification Programs for Law Enforcement, Intelligence & Investigations
Today marks another year since the heart-wrenching events of September 11, 2001. The fabric of our nation was torn, but from that tear emerged threads of heroism and resilience. In our line of work at McAfee Institute—serving the exceptional community of law enforcement, investigators, military, and intelligence—we're reminded daily of the enduring spirit of 9/11 heroes. It's a spirit that lives in each one of you as you go beyond the call of duty. This day isn't just a calendar entry or a moment of silence. It serves as a continual call to action for each one of us. Upholding the values that make this nation great isn't a task we relegate to anniversaries; it's a daily commitment. Today we're reminded that the ideals that were tested on 9/11—courage, integrity, and the indomitable American spirit—are the very ideals that we must live by every day. It's how we honor those we've lost and how we ensure their sacrifices were not made in vain. So let's reaffirm our collective commitment to stand vigilant, robust, and unfaltering in the face of challenges. By doing so, we embody the virtues that make our community and our country resilient and strong. #9/11Remembrance #NeverForget [Your thoughts and tributes are welcome. Together, we fortify the spirit of resilience and heroism that defines us.]

Honoring Our Fallen Heroes: Memorial Day and Beyond As Memorial Day approaches, I want to highlight the often-overlooked stories behind the names we see on bridges, highways, and cemeteries. These are the names of our fallen veterans, and their stories are fading as the last survivors of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam pass on. My own ancestors served, and I grew up hearing incredible stories of bravery and sacrifice. It's a source of regret that I didn't preserve their words more carefully. We're losing precious first-hand accounts with every passing day. The recent news about the Francis Scott Key Bridge reminded me how little the younger generations may know about America’s past. Let's change that! This May, I'll be sharing stories of some of the places dedicated to fallen veterans. I hope this will inspire others to learn the history behind these names. Is there a national map or resource listing veteran-named highways and bridges? If you know of one, please share! May 2/31 Next time you're on US Highway 12, remember the sacrifices of the Iron Brigade! This Civil War unit, known for its black hats and bravery, suffered heavy losses at battles like Gettysburg. This portion of the highway is also dedicated to such battles as Second Bull Run and Antietam. I was fortunate enough to serve alongside USS Antietam (CG 54), third in name, for four deployments. Learning the history of the Battle of Antietam is well worth the read/viewing (in comments) for those who do not know of this historic battle. While the battle took place in Maryland, there are dedications to those that died in battle all along US Highway 12. Look for historical markers in WI, MI, & IN commemorating these soldiers. #IronBrigade #USHistory #RoadTrip #CivilWarBattlefield #NeverForget #Maryland #lestweforget #veterans #heroes #memorialday

🌟 Today, May 10th, marks National Military Spouse Appreciation Day, a moment to honor the unsung heroes behind our brave soldiers. Yet, amidst the valor and sacrifice, there lies a silent struggle for many military spouses – the battle against substance use disorder within their loved ones. It’s a journey marked by distinct stages of coping. 🔄 In the realm of military life, these stages take on added significance. Spouses navigate deployments, relocations, and the unique challenges of service life. Yet, they stand as pillars of strength, offering unwavering support through every twist and turn of recovery. They become advocates, allies, and beacons of hope, lighting the way forward with love and understanding. Today, we salute these remarkable individuals, whose courage knows no bounds. 🌟 #MilitarySpouseAppreciationDay “Your New Dawn Awaits” Available 24/7 for Help 📲 702-595-2995 www.firstdawnrecovery.com #firstdawnrecovery #veteranrecovery #veteranrehabilitation #rehabilitationcenter #mentalhealth #veteranmentalhealth #lasvegasrecoverycenter #lasvegasrecovery

A timely evaluation of the intersection of peer support and psychedelic therapy. The new defense bill allocates funding to provide more treatment options for those that serve in the military, specifically for promising psychedelic therapies coming through the pipeline. And, various states are looking towards creating medical programs for psychedelic therapy that will need to factor in community and cultural components to how people prefer to be supported during their healing process. https://lnkd.in/gxjXBSjq "This existing Veteran-centred psychedelic peer-support model could contribute valuable knowledge and experience to potentially implementing psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy within the VA or in community settings where psychedelic services are becoming legal in various jurisdictions in North America. Further research into existing psychedelic peer-support practices, as well as researching novel models that integrate peer support into psychedelic facilitation and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, can help address ongoing issues with access and equity in the psychedelic space."
