As a veteran-owned company, today is a special day for us.
Veterans Day is for everyone who has served in the U.S. military, in peacetime and in war, whether it was four years or a whole career. Some of you are retired. Some are raising kids, running businesses, or working down the street. Plenty of you don’t bring it up unless someone asks.
Serving costs something. It means missed birthdays, moves across the country, long stretches away from home, and a lot of waiting. It costs families too. The spouses, kids, parents, and siblings who held everything together at home deserve thanks just as much.
We know what that looks like because we’ve lived it. Running a local business in the town where we live is one way we continue to show up for the people around us. Many of our customers are veterans, and many more love one.
If you’re a veteran reading this, thank you for your service. If you know one, today is a good day to tell them. A phone call, a handshake, or a text that says “thinking of you today” goes further than most people expect. If you see a veteran at the grocery store or the post office, say thanks there too. They’ll hear it.
From everyone at Straight Shot Wireless, happy Veterans Day.
