2026 Fall Career Recon 

September 2th - October 2nd

“Operation Stand Down Tennessee’s Career Recon program exceeded my expectations. The staff’s passion for helping Veterans was clear every step of the way, creating an environment focused on our success after military service. Career Recon gave me practical business knowledge and valuable networking connections across Middle Tennessee. I left more confident, better prepared, and truly appreciative of the dedication OSDTN puts into helping Veterans transition into corporate life.”
