Wayne Peacock, CEO of USAA, emphasizes the importance of hiring veterans as they transition from military to civilian life. He notes that only a small fraction of military personnel retire, urging companies to recognize the value veterans bring to the workforce, including leadership skills and a strong work ethic. USAA is supporting efforts to connect with veterans and will match donations aimed at combating the high suicide rates among veterans. Prominent companies like Home Depot, Bank of America, and Goldman Sachs are highlighted for their commitment to hiring veterans.
