“The veterans of our military service have put their lives on the line to protect the freedoms that we enjoy. They have dedicated their lives to their country and deserve to be recognized for their commitment” – Judd Gregg, former Governor of New Hampshire and former U.S. Senator
Veterans Day honors the brave men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces who have fought and sacrificed for our country. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are 18.5 million military veterans in the United States as of 2016.
It is important to note that there are 4 million veterans who have a service-related disability that occurred during their time of military service and/or continues to interfere with their daily life after their military service.
Amramp is proud to join the nation in giving thanks to all of those who made the sacrifice to protect the United States at home and abroad.
