Veteran’s Day provides us all an opportunity to honor and appreciate the sacrifices and selflessness of the men and women who serve and served in the American armed forces. It is a day for each of us to reflect and show our gratitude to those who have given of themselves to defend our nation’s independence, and through them our freedom as Americans. We want to especially thank our team members at IGNITE that are active and veteran service members. We asked some of our military team members to share what inspires them. Luis Serrano from our corporate team said, “"Valor is stability, not of legs and arms, but of courage and the soul." This quote from Michel de Montaigne reflects on the deep courage and inner strength that veterans embody.” Jesse Thomas, an Assistant Regional Manager in Connecticut shared his favorite military quote by Jocko Willink that he applies each day at IGNITE, "There can be no leadership where there is no team”.
In honor of Veterans Day, we encourage you to take a moment – today, tomorrow or next week – to thank a service member for his or her dedicated service to our community, state, and nation.
To Luis, Jesse and all of our IGNITE Veteran team members, you have made remarkable contributions to our nation, and we are proud that you are part of the IGNITE family, thank you!
