May 27, 2024 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Today is Memorial Day, a federal holiday in the United States. As we celebrate Memorial Day, we are reminded of the sacrifice of American soldiers—from the Revolutionary War to Vietnam, from Korea to the War on Terror.
As professionals in electronics manufacturing, we are grateful for our men and women in uniform and the essential functions they perform. To all of those who have served, and especially to our brothers and sisters in uniform who have given their lives in the defense of the United States of America, we thank you. Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

One of the clearest examples of this shift is now emerging in the global memory market.
