November is Military and Veteran Family Month Our military families make sacrifices, too! https://lnkd.in/gk-CG2X9 While the sacrifices made and hardships endured by our service members are well-documented, a related aspect that many people may not think about as often are the sacrifices made and hardships endured by military families as well. Maintaining a family in the civilian world is challenging enough, and military families may also face additional, unique challenges, such as frequent moves from base to base, having a loved one deployed for months on end, or dealing with long-term physical and/or emotional wounds, that can make the task of maintaining a family seem almost overwhelming.

Privileges in Camouflage: Lessons Beyond the Uniform Scott Kinder’s recent post, “The Unspoken Privileges of the Uniform,” deeply resonated with me. Having served nearly 15 years in the military, I’ve experienced firsthand the unique privileges and culture that come with wearing the uniform—things I know I’ll miss after transitioning into civilian life. In the military, resilience is a way of life. Phrases like “embrace the suck” or “pain is weakness leaving the body” are part of the culture, shaping us to push through adversity. But as Scott aptly points out, these sayings and approaches don’t translate to the civilian world. Civilians value empathy, efficiency, and outcomes over toughness or hierarchy. What stood out to me the most is how authority and job security function differently. In uniform, rank commands respect, promotions often come with time served, and mistakes are met with corrective actions rather than dismissal. Outside, however, civilians focus on skills, measurable impact, and adaptability. Job security isn’t guaranteed, and respect must be earned. Scott’s message is clear: transitioning veterans must let go of some military mindsets and embrace a new set of rules. It’s a different game, and adapting quickly is the key to success. For those of us preparing for this shift, this post is both a warning and a guide. We should reflect on what we’re leaving behind and recognize the opportunity to grow beyond the bubble of the uniform. How are you preparing for your transition? What lessons have you learned about adapting to civilian life? Let’s share and support each other.

This Memorial Day we recognize and honor the sacrifice of our service members. We remember those we lost and are grateful to every soul who fought for our country. Thank you to our American soldiers, veterans, military, and service workers. May God strengthen those still in the field and may there be a safe trip home. Eureka Wealth Solutions will be pausing today to reflect and remember, full of gratitude; for many among us have paid the ultimate sacrifice so that we may be free. We are the United States of America because of the bravery of those who have stood strong on the front lines. #ImpactInvesting #investments #wealthmanagement #financialplanning
