DTRA Honors All Veterans

  • Defense Threat Reduction Agency
  • Nov. 10, 2023 | 1:34

Veterans day is dedicated to honoring those who have served in uniform. This is more than a mere date on the calendar and a day off from work. Veterans Day acknowledges the selfless service made by our nation’s veterans and recognizes that the freedoms and privileges we often take for granted are a direct result of their impactful and often unseen sacrifices. Each military veteran’s path to uniform service is different, yet one aspect remains constant: answering the call to serve the cause of freedom. For that, we wish to thank all our military veterans.
