The National Railroad Construction and Maintenance Association (NRC) has launched a new website feature to honor military veterans and to increase awareness about jobs for transitioning military and veterans in the rail industry.

The online Veterans "Wall of Honor features profiles of veterans who work for rail-industry companies that are NRC members. The profiles include two photos – from the military and the rail industry – and highlight service details, including military branch, service dates, and rank, as well as the NRC member company and job title.

“Veterans Day gives us an important reminder to honor our military veterans, but it should not be the only time we recognize their service,” notes NRC Chairman Curtis Bilow. “In the railway industry — where so many veterans have found meaningful careers — we have an opportunity and a responsibility to honor and support them year-round. The NRC Veterans Wall of Honor provides a tangible way to honor veterans year-round and to attract transitioning military and veterans to jobs in the rail industry.

The NRC will maintain this feature on its website year-round. Review the profiles in the NRC Veterans Wall of Honor here:  https://nrcma.org/wall-of-honor.

Military veterans who work for NRC member contractors and suppliers are encouraged to submit their profile information along with two photos: one from their military service and one from their job in the railway industry. Submit your profile here: https://nrcma.org/add-your-service.
