Happy Veterans Day!
Today we're saluting men and women in uniform and we found some working in DC's real estate community. Brian Saal is a VP in JLL's government investor services team, focused on investment sales and leasing. Before joining the company seven years ago, he was an active duty naval officer and helicopter pilot. He's deployed to the Persian Gulf and South America, where he was part of counter drug operations. Behind him is the Sikorsky SH-60B (helicopter), which Brian calls "a fantastic aircraft." JLL wants more veterans working there and is launching a program today to connect employees with the veteran community so they better understand their skills. Thanks Brian and all veterans for your selfless service. Any more veterans working in real estate? Send us your pics and stories.
