Today, there are about 22 million men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. Drones & Good recognizes the honourable sacrifices veterans and their families made for our nation. We also know service members face major barriers as they transition back to the civilian workforce: 53% of them face a period of unemployment within 15 months of separation, according to the US Department of Veterans Affairs (USDVA).
