Olathe, Kansas – Global Ground Support, a leading provider of aviation ground support equipment, is
proud to announce the founding of Veterans of GSE, an industry-wide initiative designed to unite,
support, and empower military veterans working in or transitioning into the Ground Support Equipment
(GSE) field.
The Veterans of GSE group was created with a clear mission: to connect veterans from all branches of
military service, build a strong and supportive professional network, and promote veteran hiring and
transition throughout the GSE industry. As the first initiative of its kind in the sector, Veterans of GSE
seeks to honor the invaluable experience of service members while creating opportunities for
mentorship, career advancement, and community engagement.
“Veterans bring unmatched skills, leadership, and dedication to the workforce. With Veterans of GSE,
we’re not only recognizing that value, but actively working to support their transition, empower their
careers, and build camaraderie across the industry,” said Tyler Stimac, Vice President of Global Ground
Support.
Key goals of Veterans of GSE include:
- Building a strong community for veterans within the GSE sector to share knowledge,
experiences, and professional connections. - Raising awareness across the industry about the benefits of employing veterans and the
importance of supporting them in meaningful careers. - Promoting veteran hiring and career transitions, with developing resources and guidance for
service members entering the civilian workforce. - Honoring military service by celebrating the unique strengths veterans bring to the industry.
- Serving as a central platform to advocate for policies and programs that prioritize veteran
recruitment and retention within the industry.
The group will host regular networking events, provide mentorship and job-seeking resources, and
collaborate with industry partners to expand hiring initiatives and recognition programs.
Global Ground Support invites all GSE companies, professionals, and veterans to join and support the
Veterans of GSE initiative. Together, the industry can pave the way for a stronger, more inclusive future
built on the foundation of service, leadership, and mutual support.
