PHOTO: New Jersey Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR), a Department of Defense operational committee, announced that Milspray Military Technologies, headquartered in Lakewood, signed a Statement of Support for the Guard and Reserve on April 19, 2013.

The Statement of Support confirms that Milspray Military Technologies joins other employers in pledging that they fully recognize, honor and support our Nation’s Citizen Soldiers that represent over 38 percent of our nation’s total force.

ESGR is a Department of Defense, mostly volunteer organization, that seeks to create a culture where all American employers value and support the military service of their employees.

NJ State Chairman Alan Smith (Ret.) USMC stated, “For our nation to remain a viable and ready military force, our uniformed service members and their families need the security of meaningful civilian employment – both existing jobs and new opportunities.”

Milspray Military Technologies is among the growing number of veteran friendly employers that recognize the unique and valuable skills that employees with military training possess, including strong work ethics and leadership abilities.

With a mission to “provide innovative and value-driven sustainment and combat readiness solutions in support of the United States Military” Milspray began the heavy manufacturing of Vehicle Wash Systems and self-contained renewable energy power management, storage and harvesting systems that provide ‘power-on-the-go’ in theatres of war and for emergency preparedness situations.

Human Resources Specialist for Milspray Military Technologies, Melissa Ramos, reported that “no one understands their business more than a veteran” and that knowledge is what propels them to actively support and hire former military members and Citizen Soldiers for employment.

A former Army National Guardsman, Ramos was seriously injured when her unit’s ground convoy was sent out on a fuel supply mission.

Referring to Milspray’s Scorpion Energy Hunter Systems, she can attest that these projects can “ultimately save soldier’s lives” by reducing the number of convoys necessary to fuel military missions.

Milspray pledges to continue being an exceptionally military friendly organization and to increase their veteran workforce as new contracts provide staffing needs around the globe. TLS.
