How can Georgians show their gratitude to our veterans this Veterans Day, and every day?
1. Take an active part by “waving the flag” at local “Welcome Home Veteran” events.
2. Encourage local businesses to “Hire a Vet.” (Visit www.vetjobs.com for helpful resources.)
3. Visit and volunteer your time to serve hospitalized veterans at our state veteran nursing homes in Milledgeville and Augusta and/or local VA and private medical facilities.
Pete Wheeler is Commissioner of the Georgia Dept. of Veterans Service.
