Declared by Congress in 1999, May was selected National Military Appreciation Month as a month-long observance honoring the sacrifices of the United States Armed Forces. Pennsylvania has a long and proud military history. Today, we are home to nearly one million veterans and we have a 19,000-member Pennsylvania National Guard. Our military men and women have made a tremendous commitment to this commonwealth and this nation, and we are honored to provide active duty members and veterans with the information and resources they need.

But it also takes critical steps to invest in new programs and initiatives to serve Pennsylvanians.
