Local 3 Thanks Our Military. May is Military Appreciation Month

It is a special month for both those in and out of the military.

Not only do we pause on Memorial Day to remember the sacrifice and service of those who gave all, but the month also holds several other military anniversaries and events, including Military Spouse Appreciation Day and Armed Forces day. We honor the service and sacrifice of Members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, Marines and National Guard as well as the contribution of their spouses. Congress designated May as National Military Appreciation Month in 1999 to ensure the nation was given the chance to publicly show their appreciation for troops past and present.
