with our partnership with dod and the u.s. of changer we trained service members and hired 83. 90% of the participants are with verizon today. at verizon we believe that retaining our veteran employees is just as important as recruiting them. we do everything wee can to ensure they are valued and supported. to the give veterans a continued sense of commodore and opportunity to serve others, we employed service group, a form for support and career guidance and also hosts volunteer projects that provide thousands of hours of veteran focus community centers and this includes raising awareness for the acp which provides eligible veterans with broadband service and program we urge congress to continue funding. inds addition, we help veterans register and track changes for foearned benefits. for example, we partnered with theog va's communication team to the inform our veterans that the passage of the pact act. finally employees in the the national guard reserve like myself, including gap pay for up to 36 months. ints closing, i wou

it is critical that the dod continue to support these programs to bridge these lives.ecognizing that less than 7% of the u.s. population has served in the military we've developed training courses for all hiring managers on how to acclimate associates. furthermore, the range of policies supporting our associates and fostering their long-term career growth. we recently enhanced our military leave of absence policy. this update includes a substantial full pay benefit up to seven days complementing our supplemental policy assuring that if they should step away from their position that home depot. to further support these associates we created the military job transfer policy guarantees a job offer at another store when they relocate under their spouses orders. with available positions we can provide a stable career across their move. looking outside our own hiring we provide transition support for all veterans. this summer we launched a series of courses to a power servicemen and women with the soft skills for a seamless transition. translating the military experience int

i said the dod needs the spectrum they need to execute their mission, period. having said that, we also need to be more creative and innovative about how we share from and how we use spectrum. the truth of the matter is our national defense depends on as eisai continued innovation and continued innovation in 5g. my point to him and you and anyone who wants to hear from me is that it should not be a zero-sum game. we should not think every time the dod shares or gives something up there losing capacity. we have to find creative ways where we can have more bactrim be made available in the midrange band as you said and also they have what they need to do their mission and i'm omitted to working with you and to them to do that. >> during fiscal year '21 and '22, they funded 70 grants into contracts totaling over $45 million, focused on the science of countering social media misinformation and disinformation as well as digital tools to track and answer so-called misinformation. one of the projects was called expert voices together. and it is creating a comprehensive

through our partnership with the dod in the us chamber. we have trained 215 service members and hired 183. 90% of these participants are still with verizon today. finally, we have strong partnerships with other career readiness veteran serving organizations, namely 50 strong and four block. but with over 100 va recognized veteran organizations, the amount of information can be overwhelming guidance and co ordination from the va could help filter what is most relevant. at verizon we believe that , retaining our veteran employees is just as important as recruiting them. we do everything we can to ensure they are valued and supported to give vera veterans a continued sense of camaraderie and the opportunity to serve others. we established an internal employee resource group called --. this gives veterans a forum for support and career guidance. it also hosts volunteer projects that provide thousands of hours of veteran focussed community service annually. this includes raising awareness for the affordable connectivity program acp which provid

sullivan: i would refer you to dod for the formal assessment. we have deployed forces around the world and tragically training accidents occur. this did not occur in combat, it occurred during a training mission. that is why from my perspective it would not be from this war. reporter: the state department accused the biden administration of restricting information. the israeli newspapers says israelis were killed by the israeli army. that is not taking away from what happened. information is vital to fight islamophobia? mr. sullivan: when i have information i will tell it to you. we talked about american hostages who were alive who may have been killed by a loss. if we get new information that supersedes the information that we got before i will tell that to you and we have a track record from day one to do those things and we will continue to do those every day and i reject the motion we are -- the notion we are peddling misinformation. reporter: you said it is important that the laws of war be upheld. israel has killed palestinians. women and

we don't have exact numbers because dod is not entirely forthcoming but once congress rescinded thereto hey, we're going to fix and do right by these people, but they haven't. i don't think -- i think the recruiting woes will continue till someone over there realizes that you -- we have a volunteer force. these are not conscripts. these are fellow citizens. these are not -- this isn't the roman empire hire. so until and unless we get the trust that's been broken fixed, no one will come back. liz: that's such a bad scenario. how much money did they lose in terms of back pay and if you can do a cost analysis on benefits they lost, how much money are we talking about? >> billions. billions. it's -- i would say, you know, we've don back of the envelope but 10% of the reserve and look at numbers of people we're talking about here, 100,000, let's say it's roughly 100,000 and round up for back of envelope calculation and that's a chunk of the total force. it's only 2-point something and will 3.5 to 4% of the entire u.s. military and go to the personnel budget what it caused for pay in benefi
