When veterans Christian Anschuetz and Casey McEuin left the armed services, they were surprised by the difficulties veterans encountered while transitioning to civilian and corporate life. So they made it their mission to help companies recognize the valuable job skills and leadership training that veterans bring to the workplace. Now, through an organization they’re building together, Anschuetz and McEuin are bringing corporate executives and combat veterans together for mutual training and mentorship. They’re giving veterans the chance to wear a new kind of uniform.
