Definition and Examples
- Definition
- A military serviceperson is an individual who serves or has served in the armed forces of a country, which can include the army, navy, air force, or other branches of service. Military servicepersons may hold various ranks and perform a wide range of duties, depending on their training and assignment. In many countries, including the United States, laws such as the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) protect service members from discrimination based on their military status in areas like employment and benefits.
