Today, I salute Vietnam Veteran George Silvey. After six years of struggling to find work, George took an unconventional approach to his job search by standing on a California street corner and handing out his résumé instead of asking for money. His determination caught the attention of a woman who shared his story on Facebook, leading to a quick response from a local restaurant. Kiki’s Chicken Place offered him a job within hours. Silvey, experienced in maintenance and healthcare work, showed dedication by arriving early for his first shift. His story highlights perseverance, initiative, and the impact of community support in helping someone get a long-awaited opportunity. Congratulations on your new job George and THANK YOU for your service.
