On this day in 1973, the last U.S. combat troops left Vietnam. Today, and every day, we honor and thank our Vietnam Veterans who sacrificed so much in support of our nation. We appreciate you and your family's service to our country. #VietnamWarVeteransDay

North Carolina State Director J’Metria Anderson attended a White House-hosted Cyber Event in Fayetteville, North Carolina on Mar. 20, 2024. Held at Fayetteville Technical Community College, the event was tailored to the veterans and military-connected families of North Carolina. Fayetteville Tech has partnered with 17 other community colleges and universities across the state, known as the Carolina Cyber Network (CCN), which exists to strengthen the cybersecurity capabilities of North Carolina. CCN connects employers with veteran and military spouse talent as they bring the skills, discipline, and leadership that help businesses succeed. The event recognized North Carolina as one of the leading states in cyber jobs, federal and local funding, the work within the cyber community, and supports the National Cybersecurity Strategy of the Biden-Harris Administration.
