U.S. military and veterans

  • We still serve

    Nobody completes military service without having the core veteran skillset deeply engrained. These skills drive resiliency and make the difference – on active duty and on the teams veterans be. Every year 200,000 people leave active duty for civilian life. Men and women who formerly served in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard continue to positively impact the world by excelling in their diverse careers at Microsoft.
