It may be a family member, neighbor, friend, or a co-worker. These heroes have selflessly given up many freedoms to protect ours. Each year, they are thanked many times over on November 11th - Veteran's Day. However, showing thanks should not be limited to this one day. There are many other ways to show our gratitude throughout the year.   ###### Topics: [Company News](https://www.tiga.us/blog/topic/company-news) [All posts](https://www.tiga.us/blog/all) [Share via Facebook ](https://www.facebook.com/tiga.us) [Share via Email ](mailto:?subject=TIGA+Blog+%7C+Tyler+Francis&body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tiga.us%2Fblog%2Fauthor%2Ftyler-francis) [Share via LinkedIn ](https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-integration-group-of-americas-inc./) ### Sign up for updates ### Featured ### Posts by Tag - [SCADA (10)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/scada) - [automation (8)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/automation) - [Company News (7)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/company-news) - [Insider (5)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/insider) - [IPO (3)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/ipo) - [Oil and Gas (3)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/oil-and-gas) - [ignition (3)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/ignition) - [innovation (3)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/innovation) - [Control Systems (1)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/control-systems) - [Engineer (1)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/engineer) - [problemsolving (1)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/problemsolving) - [seo (1)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/seo) - [stonewall (1)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/stonewall) - [vested (1)](https://www.tiga.us/blog/tag/vested) [See all](https://www.tiga.us/blog/author/tyler-francis#) ##### Expertise Expertise ##### Resource Center Resource Center ##### About Us About Us ![TIGA](https://www.tiga.us/hs-fs/hubfs/Tiga_August2018-Theme/Images/TIGAlogolight.png?width=150&name=TIGAlogolight.png)   ![TIGA-Badges](https://www.tiga.us/hs-fs/hubfs/TIGA-Badges.png?width=110&name=TIGA-Badges.png)   Copyright © 2021 TIGA Professional Engineering Services are only offered and performed in the states in which The Integration Group of Americas, Inc. is licensed to offer or perform those services.
