Whether from the Army, Navy, Air Force or Marines, vets don’t entertain notions like “quiet quitting” (not going above and beyond the job description), walking out on a job before the mission is complete or leaving a difficult problem for someone else to solve.
“That kind of behavior is counterintuitive to everything that the military stands for,” said Alden Mills, an author and three-time Navy SEAL platoon commander. Mills now gives keynote speeches and advises CEOs and company board members on subjects like teamwork and leadership.
But not every veteran leaves the military and settles into their forever career right away. Take Hemanth “Ray” Nalamothu, 33, for example. The Queens native served as an Army paratrooper in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Jordan from 2011 to 2018.
