How to Thank a Veteran on Veterans Day!

Advice from my cousin, retired US Navy, on what to say...

Taking a break from our leadership communication topic to say thank you to all of our veterans. This US Holiday is meant to thank those who have served or are currently serving our country. Don’t forget to thank a Vet this weekend. And, according to my cousin the Navy Vet, you can tug at their heart strings by saying something like this…

Brad Peterson Iraq
  • Warriors like you help me sleep better at night.
  • Thanks for being a bad a$$ American!
  • You’re a BEAST!

While I didn’t serve in the military I have many friends and family who did, including my cousin Brad who did several tours in the Middle East. My sincerest thanks to you all for serving.

Oh yeah… and YOU’RE ALL BEASTS!

See you next week,

Russ
