I heard from many of my friends who attended. They
really like the way the food line was conducted, with
people directing them to areas so they could get their
food. Even with the long line, I didn’t hear any
complaints, and heard only good things about the food.
People also really like the transportation vans from
Building 500 (the main hospital building) to the event.
The vans arrived with not too many people, so the
wristband line went fairly quickly. It was great to
finally have the Sea Cadets form two lines to steer
people to the gift bags too.
I hear untold numbers of comments regarding the very
kind, helpful and smiling people who assisted in any way
they could with whatever needed to be done. As the
sister of a Vietnam Veteran, I really appreciated the
comments from the person who made them. I tried to
greet our Vietnam Vets with a smile, handshake and an
expression of thanks for their service and the usual
“Welcome Home” which I say to all of them if at all
possible.
As a first-timer, I was so honored to be a part of
something that I know everyone looks forward to and
enjoys to the fullest. And I hope to continue for many
years to come!
Thanks to all for your kindness to a “newbie” whose
enthusiasm and care for Veterans knows no boundaries.
Every one of you Rock!! And you rocked the hearts of
all of our Heroes and their families !!
Proudly serving our Nation’s most deserving Heroes,
