At FreedomSystem.org, we’re always looking for ways to make our events, outreach, and day-to-day work smoother for both our volunteers and our Veterans. The truth is—when you’re hauling supplies for a cookout, setting up a poker fundraiser, or running around at community events—you need gear that’s tough enough to keep up.

That’s why we’re excited to share that Viking Bags has stepped up to support us! They’ve offered to send us one of their Viking Trident Extra Large Motorcycle Backpacks to try out.

This thing isn’t just for motorcyclists—it’s a rugged, versatile bag that can handle everyday use. We’ll be putting it to work at our events and activities, and we’ll report back on how it holds up in the real world.

Why This Matters for Our Community

Little partnerships like this go a long way. When companies like Viking Bags donate their products, it means our volunteers and Veterans can try out solid gear while we focus on the bigger mission—helping Veterans build camaraderie and find strength in community.

We’ll share updates as we break in the bag, but in the meantime, check out their collection of gear here:

Introduction One of the most common pieces of advice Veterans hear during transition is simple: “Translate your MOS.” The idea sounds reasonable. Replace acronyms with civilian terminology. Turn missions into projects. Convert leadership into management language. Take...

The History of United States Military Challenge Coins

History Small enough to fit in the palm of a hand, challenge coins carry a surprising amount of meaning. Within the United States military, these coins represent recognition, belonging, and shared experience. They are often presented quietly — sometimes by a commander...

Beyond Survival – Learning

Learning Importance to Veterans I didn’t set out to create a blog series on this topic. But after re-reading my last article, I realized something — this conversation is needed. The number of people who read it (or at least clicked on it) was higher than I expected....

What is Important to Veterans

I’ve got a question for you… and then a follow-up question. What is important? Why is it important to you? The answers to those questions will make immediate sense to some of you. To others, they’ll sound simple — maybe even obvious. But there’s a difference between...

Season 4: Episode 2: Civilians are Watching

Movies, television, and social media have created familiar images of Veterans — the unstoppable warrior, the haunted survivor, or the flawless patriot. While often meant to honor service, these portrayals can quietly shape how civilians view and interact with Veterans...

Anxiety of Everyday Life

Understanding Anxiety in the Life of Veterans Anxiety in the scheme and life of things comes in many different forms and changes within the confines and communities of military Veterans. Soldiering is not a minimal commitment- there are soldiers that deserve and earn...

Season 4: Episode 1: That’s Bullsh*t

We’re not starting Season 4 quietly. We’re not easing in with a polite “welcome back.” We’re kicking off 2026 with a full-throttle “that’s bullsh*t!” and we’re doing it the only way we know how — loud, honest, and unfiltered. Welcome to Common Veterans Season 4. This...
