Check In and Connect: Honoring Veteran Buddy Check Week Through Meaningful Conversations


Veteran Buddy Check Week is an important time for us to reach out to our fellow Marines and veterans. Many of our brothers and sisters face challenges that can lead to feelings of isolation. A simple phone call or text can make a huge difference in someone’s life.

This year, we invite everyone in the Marine for Life Network to take the pledge to #TalkToTen Veterans. This means committing to connect with ten veterans—whether it’s through a chat, a quick message, or just checking in. By doing this, we strengthen our bonds and show that we care about each other’s well-being.

Reaching out can help fellow Marines feel supported and understood. When they know someone is there to listen, they are more likely to open up about their experiences and seek help when needed.

Every conversation counts!

As we observe Veteran Buddy Check Week, let’s make it our mission to connect with one another. Take the pledge today and be part of a network that shows our Marines they are never alone. Together, we can create a strong, supportive community that uplifts our veterans and honors their service!

I'm about to text all my Navy buddies but we always check on each other. Then I have three active family members and I check on them.
