This is from our President and CEO of our company. We have about 50 opcos nation wide. 4 of which are in Texas
Luke pm me for more info
Email sent to all opco's
Our military recruiting initiative continues to gain momentum, and I want to share with you our recent results and progress.
So far in fiscal year 2015 with more than four months remaining, we’ve hired 151 veterans and military spouses. I believe we’re on track to surpass last year’s total of 184 hires.
As you may recall, our commitment was to hire 240 veterans and military spouses by 2016 and 1,000 by 2018. With 335 hires so far, we’ve already reached the 2016 goal and are well on the way to our 5-year goal.
Thanks to everyone across our company for the outstanding job in attracting veterans and military spouses to our organization. As we bring these folks on board, please join me in welcoming them to the team and thanking them for their service.
Best,
George

I know this post is old but I just wanted to comment on it as well. I wasn't always a productive member of society before the Army but I was never a person to stay in trouble. Just had to do what I had to do to get by. I joined the Army to turn my life around and get a fresh start. Which I did 6 years later I'm out. Never got in trouble not one article 15 nothing! got out tried to get a job with law enforcement because I was infantry in the Army. After applying so many places. Not one place hired me. Soo.. After knowing I needed a boot an my @ss to shape up. Knowing I was going to Afghanistan seeing what I seen. I come back and I don't qualify. lol.. It wasn't funny then I was very hurt and distraught. How was it that I could fight globally but I can't come home to America a country I love and wanted to protect. How can one get off active duty try to get a job as LEO and get denied. I am by know means trying to throw my service an anyone's face but these are the questions I have or had. So the answers were always "Thank You for your service"! but at this time cause of my "wet&reckless" when I was 20 Now I'm 29 I still can't be an LEO. I say all that to say this. Your consequences will always comeback to haunt you!
