🇺🇸 It’s never too late to honor a hero. 🇺🇸

This month, Thank A Vet Now is proud to recognize Gunnery Sergeant Stephen L. Weiss, United States Marine Corps, as our Salute of the Month.

Gunnery Sergeant Weiss has dedicated his career to service, leadership, and the defense of our nation. He has completed 6 deployments and traveled to every continent except South America and Antarctica.

His duty stations have included Camp Lejeune, Quantico, Twentynine Palms, and Kāneʻohe Bay, Hawaii.

Beginning as an 0331, he later became a 0369 Infantry Unit Leader and currently serves as a Company Operations Chief.

His career reflects the dedication, sacrifice, leadership, and commitment that represent the very best of our military community.

Please join us in thanking Gunnery Sergeant Stephen L. Weiss for his service and continued commitment to our country. 🇺🇸

Today, Thank A Vet Now was honored to serve alongside incredible organizations and volunteers at the Red, White & Blue Ice Cream Giveaway held at Veterans Village in Loma Linda, California.

Representing Thank A Vet Now, Jesse Acosta joined Band of Brothers, while Lisa Pinkley volunteered in support of Volunteer for Veterans Foundation under the leadership of Betty Volk. Together, everyone came together with one common purpose—to serve and honor our nation’s veterans.

Events like these are a reminder that even small acts of kindness, a smile, a conversation, or an ice cream shared on a warm day, can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those who have served.
