WHY:
Chevrolet’s commitment to the U.S. military runs deep. Its relationship with the military began in April 1940 when Chevrolet negotiated their first military contact building explosive shells. By the end of 1941, military trucks and aircraft engines were also being produced in Chevrolet plants. Seven Chevrolet plans across the country were awarded the Army-Navy “E” for excellence, in recognition of their contributions to wartime production.

Chevrolet Military Salute was launched to recognize and honor the sacrifies of men and women for their country, extending the brand’s support of the military. This support includes other programs such as Chevrolet’s military discount https://www.gmmilitarydiscount.com/ip-vpp/, ongoing collections for Cell Phones for Soldiers http://cellphonesforsoldiers.com/, and partnerships with military organizations like the Achilles Freedom Team http://www.achillesinternational.org/programs/freedom-team/overview and the Tracis Manion Foundation http://drivingthenortheast.com/wp-admin/www.travismanion.com/.
