Honoring Those Who Served: A Veterans Day and Remembrance Day Message from IAM International President Brian Bryant
On Veterans Day in the United States and Remembrance Day in Canada, we take time to honor the brave men and women who have served in uniform and to thank them for their sacrifices in protecting our countries.
The IAM Union has a proud tradition of standing with veterans, recognizing their service, honoring their sacrifices and fighting for the respect, opportunities and support they deserve. As the largest aerospace and defense labor union, generations of our members have carried the values of duty, discipline, teamwork and service from their military careers into our workplaces and communities. Their contributions strengthen our union and our nations every day.
We also honor the families who have endured the hardships of military service. The courage and commitment of loved ones who served in support at home cannot be forgotten as we thank our two nations’ veterans.
For the IAM, honoring veterans is about more than words or ceremonies. It means ensuring that those who served have access to earned benefits, quality health care, employment opportunities, and the resources they need to secure their future. It means standing up for veterans and their families long after their military service has ended.
The IAM Union is committed to that responsibility. Through our Veterans Services Program and the solidarity of our membership, we will continue working to ensure that no veteran is left behind and that every veteran receives the recognition, dignity and support they have earned.
To all IAM members who have served, to all veterans across the United States and Canada, and to the families who stand beside them: thank you. Your service, sacrifice and dedication inspire us.
In solidarity,
Brian Bryant
International President
IAM Union
