The Electric Forest festival has shared a video and written Veteran's Day message from String Cheese Incident percussionist Jason Hann. Hann himself is U.S. Navy veteran who served from 1987 to 1991 as an Interior Communications Second Class.
"One of the things that I learned, serving on a ship, is that every day you’re learning something or doing something to keep your shipmates safe, both in port and at sea," wrote Hann. "You can’t make it out of there intact without being united and recognizing that you must look out for each other, daily, to get back to your family safely."
"No matter what was going on, it was clear that you don’t make it without your brother or sister helping, guiding, protecting, teaching, and serving," he continued. "Thank you, Veterans!"
Along with the written message, the festival shared a special video from Hann. Watch it and read the entire written message here.
