Heroes of Leidos: Clement

Roughly one in every five Leidos employees is a veteran. Their stories are meant to honor our Heroes and celebrate the commitment each of them made to serve at the highest level. Meet the Heroes of Leidos.

"I was 23 years old, and while I wasn't even old enough to rent a luxury car, I was put in charge of a multi-million dollar weapon system and the crew that operated it. That summer we took part in NATO exercises that brought ships from the Netherlands, Germany, Great Britain, and others to New York City during the U.S. leg of the deployment. As we led this multinational flotilla through New York Harbor, I remember standing on the bridge as we sailed in formation past the Statue of Liberty, past the Twin Towers, past the amazing New York City skyline and thinking how great it was to be an American and how proud I was to welcome these allies to 'our house."
