Whiz kid

Richard “Ricky” Gilleland III, a high school junior in Virginia and a member of the Future Business Leaders of America, has done something rather remarkable. He has been described in press reports as a computer whiz and the description is apt.

He succeeded where the Army has failed by creating the only digitized record of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery.

Check out his website and prepare to be impressed: www.PreserveAndHonor.com

QUESTION: We’ve all heard stories about “young people” not being ready to function in the workaday world.  If you have a positive example of something a young employee has done in your business, share it with us and we will share it in future eNews editions.
