Recently discharged veteran?

A clever story lead from the White River Valley Electrical Cooperative Edition of Rural Missouri states… 

Electrical cooperatives are working to make even better use of a powerful source of energy — military veterans”

—Rural Missouri, Nov., 2018—

The National Rural Electrical Cooperative Association has started a program and coalition of coops to employ more veterans.

“More than 200,000 service members transition out of the military into civilian life annually and electrical coops are looking to tap into that talent.”

—Rural Missouri, Nov., 2018 .—-

The story by Paul Wesslund points out the adaptability and resourcefulness veterans face each day and year of their service duties, assets employers value.

The story does a nice job of also pointing out the adaptability qualities military wives develop to succeed at their daily challenges and recognizes their value in the workforce.
