What do youth need to know to make it in the military? How did you end up choosing engineering as your career? What is required for students to have their education paid for by the armed forces? How long is the commitment to the military? These are a few of the questions posed to five decorated officers (and an officer's mentee) from various branches of the armed forces, as part of our celebration of Veterans Day. Each officer has spoken with students affiliated with the National Society of Black Engineers.

Congratulations to NSBE leader Simone Douglas! Read more about her Linde Engineers for Tomorrow Scholarship from the Executive Leadership Council.
