The veterans unemployment rate rose slightly in November but still remained under 3.0% for the ninth consecutive month, continuing the best employment streak for the group in at least 20 years.

According to data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday, the unemployment rate among all veterans was at 2.8% last month, up from 2.5% in October and the highest the rate has been since it reached 2.9% in April.
