Veterans Day is a meaningful moment each year to acknowledge the individuals who have served in the United States Armed Forces. It’s a day set aside to recognize commitment, discipline, and the responsibility that comes with choosing military service. At ThrottleNet, this recognition holds particular significance as our company includes veterans within our own team, including one of our owners and Chief Operating Officer, Eric Aguado.
Eric’s background as a veteran has contributed to ThrottleNet’s culture in practical and lasting ways. His leadership style reflects many qualities shaped by service, structured decision-making, clear accountability, and a steady focus on execution. These traits influence how teams operate, how processes are developed, and how challenges are approached across the organization. It’s not something that’s highlighted for attention; it’s simply part of the foundation of how we work.
Beyond leadership, ThrottleNet is also home to veteran employees in various roles, and their experience adds meaningful perspective to the company. Veterans bring a unique combination of adaptability, attention to detail, and operational awareness; skills that translate effectively into a wide range of professional environments. Their contributions aren’t framed as something separate or special; they’re integrated into the everyday work that keeps the organization moving forward.
Veterans Day also serves as an important reminder of the commitment required of those who serve. While the public often sees the broader idea of military service, the individuals behind that service each carry their own experiences, transitions, and responsibilities. Today is an appropriate time to acknowledge that reality with respect, and to recognize both the visible and behind-the-scenes impact of the people who have taken on that role.
For ThrottleNet, Veterans day is a moment to express appreciation for the veterans on our team and within our community. Their backgrounds inform how they approach their work, how they collaborate with others, and how they navigate complex situations. That influence is valuable, and it’s something we recognize with sincerity.
Veterans Day is also a reminder that service doesn’t end when someone leaves the military. The habits and standards developed during that time continue to shape personal and professional lives long after. Many veterans carry a strong sense of responsibility into their careers, volunteer efforts, families, and communities. That continuity of commitment is something worth acknowledging, whether or not it is formally recognized day-to-day.
As an organization, we appreciate the practical strengths and perspectives veterans bring. We respect the experiences that shaped them, and we recognize the role they play on our team. Our appreciation extends to every veteran inside and outside of ThrottleNet—past, present, and future.
