Walmart Stores Inc., the world's largest retailer and the nation's largest private employer, is making a pledge to hire every veteran who wants a job.

The plan is expected to be announced as part of an address delivered in New York on Wednesday at the annual retail industry convention by Bill Simon, president and CEO of Walmart's namesake U.S. business.

The company says it projects it will hire more than 100,000 veterans in the next five years. Honorably discharged veterans will have a "place to go", says Walmart's Simon. The hiring pledge covers veterans within 12 months of leaving active duty.

Another excuse for the left to hate Walmart.

True, sam waltons son, the one that passed away, was a vet.

This is American patriotism on display.
