GREEN BAY, WI (WSAU) — The Green Bay Packers will hold a special enlistment ceremony during Sunday’s Salute to Service game.
The team has announced that more than 100 people will take the oath of service, joining all six branches of the armed forces. U.S. Army Major Seth Mickelson, commander of the Milwaukee Military Entrance Processing Station, will administer the oath.
Salute to Service is the NFL’s year-round initiative to the U.S. military and their families, both active-duty and veterans, through fundraising and awareness efforts. That includes 32 ‘Salute to Service’ games each season, where teams are encouraged to honor service members and raise awareness for veterans’ causes.
The effort began in 2011 and has raised more than $80 million for groups like the Pat Tillman Foundation, USO, and Wounded Warrior Project.
