RALEIGH – For the third year in a row, the N.C. Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (NC DMVA) is taking part in a national initiative Operation Green Light during the week leading up to Veterans Day and urging everyone to turn their exterior lights green in honor of our servicemen and women.
NC DMVA is urging homeowners, businesses, and governments to participate in Operation Greenlight to honor and show support for veterans of all military branches. This initiative will also raise awareness about the challenges faced by many of these men and women who have selflessly served our state and nation.
“We are grateful for the contributions from our veterans and their families, Operation Green Light offers an opportunity for us to let veterans know that they are seen, and we deeply appreciate the sacrifices they make,” said NC DMVA Secretary Grier Martin.
NC DMVA’s headquarters located in the historic Seaboard Building, the North Carolina State Capitol, the North Carolina Executive Mansion, and NCSECU headquarters in downtown Raleigh will all shine a green light in support of our veterans.
NC DMVA also invites everyone to share their participation on social media using the tag (FB/IG: @nc.dmva; X: @NCDMVA ) and hashtag #OperationGreenlight
