Do you know the stories your family's veterans carry in their hearts? ???? ?? The stories of our grandparents' valor and sacrifice often make up the tapestry of our family legacies. Yet, as time marches on, we risk losing these personal accounts of history. ?? Now is the crucial moment to engage with the veterans in our families — to ask, listen, and record their military experiences that shaped their lives and our heritage. ??? My own experience with this preserves a chapter of my family's story forever. A naval aviator in the family, who flew in blimps during the Korean War, shared his tales on video ??. Those recordings are now beyond valuable, especially as we navigated the challenges of his worsening dementia. I pose a question to all of you: Have your grandparents shared about their time in the military? ?? The reflections they share could offer insights into resilience, courage, and history that textbooks often overlook. Their service deserves to be honored and remembered by generations to come. For those eager to preserve these living histories, Our Patriot Stories offers a platform to record their military history for free.? Find out more and get started by visiting the link in the comment below. It's a gesture of gratitude you'll cherish—a narrative thread in your family's story that you won't want to miss. #MilitaryHistory #FamilyLegacy #Veterans

Happy (belated) Veterans Day to those who served a country that refused to serve them back. Don’t forget, this holiday has NEVER had the same meaning for Black Americans, even though we have served in EVERY war. With that said, let’s talk about the racist way the G.I. Bill was enforced in the 1940s and beyond as a form of affirmative action for White Americans. ??? Did you know this? Do you have a veteran/ancestor you’d like to acknowledge? For me, it’s James Knight and Ernest Crim Sr. ?????? ??Lemme know, follow for more and DM for business inquiries. #veteransday #ushistory #blackhistory #racism #history #redlining #military #dei #antiracism

This year, authenticity is the word that has defined a journey of profound discovery. Authenticity is not just a concept; it’s a mission that transforms lives. After 13 years of dedicated service in the United States Army as an infantryman and paratrooper, the return home has been both humbling and enlightening. The experiences of jumping from airplanes and enduring combat tours taught invaluable lessons about resilience and purpose. The military term "Charlie Mike," meaning “continue mission,” embodies an enduring spirit of perseverance. Helping others find their next mission is a calling that emerges from deep self-development and introspection. Self-discovery reveals the true essence of purpose and humility. Embrace the journey, step into your own, and continue the mission with unwavering determination. Your mission is waiting; continue it with authenticity and courage. #Authenticity #MustacheWisdom #Veteran #CharlieMike #DownHomeTexasBusiness

For over a century, Navy Day has stood as a tribute to the courage and dedication of those who have served our nation at sea. While the official Navy Birthday may now be celebrated in October, the legacy of Navy Day endures as a time to reflect on the pivotal role of the U.S. Navy in defending our nation’s security and freedom. Did you know that President Theodore Roosevelt, whose birthday coincides with Navy Day, expanded the Navy's fleet to over 160 ships, transforming the U.S. into a global naval power? This significant move laid the foundation for modern naval strategy and America's maritime dominance. But Navy Day isn’t just about history—it’s about the individuals who commit to serving today and tomorrow. As a way to honor their service, here’s a quick guide on how to show your support: ?? Learn more about the Navy’s history – Explore its journey from a fledgling fleet to a global force. ?? Reach out to veterans – Send a message of appreciation to those who have served. ?? Support Navy charities – Consider donating to organizations that aid current sailors and their families. How will you be honoring the Navy’s legacy this October 27th? Share your thoughts and let’s continue the conversation about the incredible impact of our naval forces. #NavyDay #HonorOurNavy #USNavy #NavalValor #SaluteToService

This is leadership.
Doug Zembiec passed seventeen years ago. May 11th, 2007. Much has been written on his accomplishments, including how he earned the nickname "The Lion of Fallujah." All-American wrestler. Recon Marine. Completed numerous combat deployments. And received a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart. He's best known for the way he conducted himself in battle. Becoming a legend in the Marine Corps for his aggression and for placing the safety of his Marines in front of his own. In my opinion. The most remarkable thing about Doug is what happened in the days after Doug died. When Doug was laid to rest in Arlington, it was a designed as a closed ceremony, not open to the general public. Invitations were extended to Doug's family, his close friends, and any service member who served alongside him. When the day came, more than a thousand Marines showed up. Enlisted Marines who'd served under Doug's command. When asked by a local reporter, what had drawn such a crowd, a fellow officer said "Your men have to follow your orders, but they don't have to go to your funeral." Punch Line: The things we do, the metrics we achieve, they're all merely artifacts of the people we are. The way we show up in the world, for our teams, for our families, for each other - is and will always be what people care most about. This week prioritize being over doing. #Veterans #veteranmentalhealth #marinecorps #writing ------ If you enjoy content like this, consider subscribing to The TRANSITION on Substack. https://lnkd.in/gW2vP5pw
