Christina,

What can we do to help this issue along? There is little need for an infantryman in corporate America, but there is a huge need for the leadership traits that he learned while in the military, for organization skills that were perfected, and for the counseling expertise. We need to help veterans concentrate more on the competencies that they learned while a service member and less on the specific job titles. Even if the veteran was a commander, translating "Commander" to "CEO" on a resume doesn't quite demonstrate the level of competency that the veteran acquired while being in charge.
