Message From Suncoast District
Manager Eric Chavez
On Friday, November 11, we will
observe Veterans Day.
The Postal
Service pays tribute to the men and women who have worn the uniform of the
United States Armed Forces – Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Navy and
Marines. Nationwide the Postal Service
employs approximately
113,000 veterans, which is nearly 18% of our workforce.
On behalf of the U. S. Postal
Service, Suncoast District, I extend a sincere “thank you” to all
veterans. Our veteran employees have demonstrated their commitment and service to our
country, and bring that same dedication and commitment to their Postal Service
employment.
As we do each
year, we will hold a variety of veterans’ recognition events throughout the
district. This year we will also present
a beautifully designed lapel pin to each veteran’s preference employee in the
Suncoast District.
The pin serves
as a “thank you” for the many contributions our veterans have made while
serving our nation and for providing excellent service to our postal customers.
Please take a moment to thank your
co-workers who have served our nation and demonstrated an incomparable love of
country. They have earned our respect
and gratitude.
“Thank you” to all Suncoast
District veteran employees. We salute
you.
