This week the MILLIE team got busy writing! We launched Fort Meade on the site (tell your friends!), we shared where the best duty stations are for breweries, and we shared our MILLIE Manifesto since we didn’t have the chance to talk with Mark Zuckerberg when he came to Fort Bragg.

We’ve included links (for easy sharing), the copy for the posts (in case you’ve already used up all your creative juices today), the hashtags (for optimal millennial reach) and the MILLIE logos and branding information (in case you want to feature us on your front page or something).

If you’re one of our partners, please send us what’s been happening in your world lately by emailing me at alexis@gomillie.com.
