A HUGE shout out to Cory Thompson and his Broadcast team at Georgia Piedmont Technical College for agreeing to create/produce a video for the Governor’s Returning Veterans Task Force! When the Service’s transition programs became more prescribed with no leeway in adding curriculum, the “local” information could no longer be presented to our transitioning service men and women. In order for our military members and their families to make an informed choice about staying in Georgia, the military installations in Georgia have agreed to show a short video describing what the many state agencies, to include the Technical College System of Georgia, do for our veterans. As the 8th state in number of veterans, the 5th in active duty and the 5th in women veterans, Georgia is definitely a military and veteran friendly state. This video is a tremendous initiative since according to the statistics from Ft. Stewart and Hunter Air Airfield, 58% of soldiers separating want to stay in Georgia and 40% haven’t made up their mind. Thanks in advance to the students, Cory and the leadership of Georgia Piedmont Technical College to taking on this project during Spring semester!
