On Behalf of the Adjutant General of Georgia:
On November 11, 2021, Americans will pause to reflect on the sacrifices borne by veterans of military service. Veterans Day began as a remembrance of the armistice that ended World War I. In the modern era, Veterans Day celebrates the service of all military veterans.

Our veterans from all services, active, guard, and reserve continue to stand watch on freedom's frontier. In the Georgia National Guard, we have deployed more than 23,000 service members since 9/11. The tireless support of our Families and employers have enabled all of us to focus on our mission. I want to thank every Soldier, Airman, Family member, our Civilian work force as well as those who employ our service members.

The culture of service and sacrifice has kept our country free for more than 245 years. The Georgia Department of Defense continues to play a vital role in the total force. Again, thank you for all that you do for our state and nation.
