Doolittle Raiders Honored: Honor Air Force Veterans Close to You

And, many air force members have a strong sense of military identity. It is possible to keep a strong identity from the military while working in a different industry. Air force careers gifts are a great way to keep a meaningful air force identity without sacrificing the path to a life outside of the military.

Air Force Retirement Gifts for Honorably Discharged Veterans and Their Accomplishments

Instead of giving a gift for retirement, give the right United States Air Force career gift. Celebrate the career of a veteran that served in the air force instead of focusing on next steps. Some popular air force career gifts include custom air force rings and United States diamond dress watches. Invest in gifts that do not take away from a veteran that strongly identifies with being a part of the United States armed forces. Celebrate the person’s identity and term of service.

How to Provide the Right Support for Veterans that Need to Return to Civilian Life

It is important to be understanding. Ironically, one of the worst things to say is, “I understand.” Every individual experiences air force service in his or her unique way. Listen more than you talk. Resist the urge to give many different helpful suggestions or suggest next career steps. Be a safe person to talk to about memories in the air force, feelings about honorable discharge, and feelings about civilian life. Listen, be available, and give United States Air Force careers gifts instead of advice. Show your appreciation with a token of gratitude and your continual support. Honor the accomplishments of your air force veteran as the same way the accomplishments of the Doolittle Raiders from WWII are honored. Each veteran has a story, and each veteran deserves honor.
