Eleven major U.S. firms have joined together in a pledge to hire 100,000 veterans and military personnel after they've finished serving the country over the next several years. Huge corporations such as JPMorgan Chase, AT&T, Verizon and Cisco are among those participating.

JPMorgan Chase is leading the efforts to rally employers for the troops. The drive is called the "100,000 Jobs Mission," and participating employers believe the skills military personnel developed in the service could easily translate to jobs in the private sector.
