Today, we honor the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering dedication of our nation’s veterans. Your service and selflessness safeguard the freedoms we all share — and we are deeply grateful. At DornerWorks, we are proud to stand beside those who serve by developing technologies that protect and empower them in the field. From secure mission-critical systems to innovations that strengthen our national defense, our work is driven by a simple truth: every line of code, every design decision, and every test we run ultimately serves the people who serve us. To all veterans — including the many within our own DornerWorks team — thank you. Your leadership, integrity, and resilience inspire everything we do. Today and every day, we remember that freedom isn’t free — and we are honored to play even a small part in protecting those who protect us. #VeteransDay #ThankYouVeterans #HonoringService #DefenseInnovation #DornerWorks #EngineeringForGood
