Honoring Their Sacrifice
Honoring Their Sacrifice
Dear IAM Family,
This weekend, we remember those who have given their lives for our freedoms.
For more than 136 years, IAM members have been integral parts of our communities. They have fought—and died—in every major American military mission since our founding in 1888. As a union with deep ties to our military, we will always remember, mourn, and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
That’s why we provide best-in-class services to our military veterans, built an IAM monument to honor our military, and are incredibly proud that IAM members serve the interests of our armed forces each and every day.
This Memorial Day – and every day – we remember those who have given their lives for all of us.
Sincerely,
Brian Bryant
International President
