Scott’s View: The Spirit of Veterans Day Was Alive in 2024 With Heroes Meet Heroes

November 15, 2024

Scott Higgins

For the past thirteen years, Veterans Advantage (now WeSalute) has proudly hosted events to honor U.S. active-duty military, veterans, and their families in recognition of Veterans Day. This year is no different.

Our "Heroes Meet Heroes" initiative has been a cornerstone of these celebrations, creating truly memorable experiences. Just last week, we united military veterans and Olympic athletes in a major streaming event, which has now flourished for a fifth time. Enjoy our cover story recapping the event here.

Thanksgiving Wishes

To all the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our nation, we extend our deepest gratitude this Thanksgiving. Your selfless dedication and unwavering commitment to defending our freedoms are an inspiration to us all. Whether you're currently deployed, a veteran who has answered the call in the past, or a family member who has supported a loved one through their service, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

This Thanksgiving, as you gather with loved ones, may your hearts be filled with warmth, gratitude, and the pride of knowing you have made a profound difference in the world. We wish you a happy and restful holiday season. Thank you for everything you do.

WeSalute Awards Scott’s View: Two Generations, One Legacy of Valor In a rare and powerful moment during the 2026 State of the Union address, the nation stood to honor two men whose stories of heroism define the very essence of American service. Though their actions took place more than seven decades apart — one in the freezing skies over the Sea of Japan and the other in a daring modern-day raid in Caracas — they are bound by an unbroken thread of valor that transcends generations.
