Many of us have spent the holidays away from family, friends, and support.  I hope this is not the case for you all this week(end), but check in on one another, support each other, and spread goodwill to your fellow military family and veterans.  Be well and Happy Thanksgiving!

The attack on Sept. 11, 2001 impacted everyone. For the military community, it shaped our training, deployments, and our operations to this day. Take a minute to reflect, remember, and pay tribute to the impact this has had on all of us. #September11 #NeverForget #remember

On Independence Day we remember the sacrifices of so many, for hundreds of years, to give us the freedoms we enjoy today. May we come together as a country and celebrate each other's contributions for the common good! #4thofjuly #independenceday #freedom #unity

Boston College Veterans were excited to participate in the first ever Service2School Summit. We need to work together to educate the broader campus communities about the value our military-connected students bring to the classroom. @ServicetoSchool #studentveterans
