What Is Alive Day and Why Do Veterans Celebrate It?

Veterans have their own traditions and celebrations, says Jared Seyl. In Denver, some of the more active veterans on social media have come up with a unique way of marking an unusual milestone in their lives. For these veterans, “Alive Day” is something that is theirs alone, something that isn’t exactly a federal or even a local holiday, but something worth remembering, if not celebrating, anyway.

Jared Seyl Denver: Tips for Jobseeking Veterans

While the unemployment rate for veterans has gone down to record-low levels, many veterans are still at a loss when trying to land a job. You might have issues related to their injuries or the lack of educational credentials and relevant experience.
