Remembering Those Who Served: A Veterans Day Message From Spectrum
To every veteran, service member and military family member on our team: thank you. Your courage and selflessness protect the freedoms we all share, and that commitment doesn’t end when the uniform comes off. We see it every day in how you lead, solve problems and look out for one another — not just in uniform, but in the work you do now.
This year, we’re honoring the more than 8,000 veteran team members who make up our military community at Spectrum.
In Their Words: What Veterans Day Means to Us
The Spectrum Veterans Business Resource Group (BRG) is one way that we support members of the military community, connecting employees with fellow veterans and allies who understand exactly what the transition from service to civilian career can look like.
We asked members of our Veterans BRG what this day means to them and how they carry their service forward.
For Bryan LeDuc, a Field Technician V in New Port Richey, Florida, pride and gratitude go hand in hand.
My proudest military moment was leading the first implementation of live broadcast TV on a forward-deployed U.S. Navy vessel, which earned me a Letter of Commendation from Rear Admiral Moore. Transitioning to Spectrum after my service brought my family stability and rewarding career opportunities, and I’m grateful for the support and growth I’ve found here.

Angela Richardson, an Administrative Assistant in Columbia, Tennessee, points to what her service taught her and where she’s put it to use since.
Serving my country in Iraq taught me strength, teamwork and how to stay calm under pressure. I’m proud to bring that military experience to Spectrum, a workplace where veterans like me are truly valued and given the space to keep growing.

Steve Walker, a Systems Administrator II in Sandy Springs, Georgia, carries his Marine Corps training into everything he does today.
Earning the title of Marine shaped who I am. Whether surviving Arctic conditions in Norway or managing IT operations today, the accountability, teamwork and discipline I gained in the military influence everything I do. I appreciate Spectrum’s commitment to veterans and look forward to contributing the leadership, discipline and technical focus I gained in the Marine Corps.

For Jason Bergmann, a Residential Inbound Sales Rep in St. Ann, Missouri, service meant finding small ways to make a difference, a habit that’s followed him home.
When I was tasked with distributing care packages during my deployment, I wanted to do something special. I built a physical 'store' for my unit — complete with shelves of coffee and comfort items. Now at Spectrum, I carry forward that same dedication to helping others. The military taught me how to solve problems on the fly. I may not be delivering coffee and beef jerky anymore, but I love using those skills today to make life easier for our customers by offering great products and services.

And for Heidi Crapolicchio, a Lead Route Support Technician in Phoenix, Arizona, service is a family tradition as much as a personal one.
Service runs deep in my family; my father spent two decades in the Air Force, my brother served 10 years as a Field Medic, and carrying on that military tradition is my proudest accomplishment. The military teaches you how to multitask and focus on the finest details, and I’ve carried those exact strengths with me every single day of my journey — including here at Spectrum.

The People Who Help Veterans Find Their Next Mission
Veterans join our team at nearly double the national rate, and that doesn’t happen by accident. It takes deliberate effort, and our Military Talent Attraction team leads it. The team is built the way you’d expect: veterans, military spouses and an Army Reservist who have lived the transition to civilian life themselves and understand exactly what it takes to navigate it.
Their work shows in the results. In 2025, they built a base of nearly 50,000 leads that led to 329 assisted hires. Behind each of those hires is a service member or military spouse who found a path into a civilian career, and a recruiter who helped connect the dots.
They work alongside organizations like Hiring Our Heroes, RecruitMilitary and Student Veterans of America to make sure candidates can use the skills they’ve built in service in their next chapter here.
Skills built in the military, like leadership, problem-solving and operating under pressure, translate in many directions. If you’re ready for a career that respects your service and keeps you connected to the military community, explore careers at Spectrum.
