Today, members of the Detachment visited two senior living centers to spend time with our veterans. One visit was especially meaningful because a veteran at our new facility knew we were coming back this month and asked an employee to help him order flag lapel pins for us.

Seeing how much the visit meant to him and how excited he was to personally present us with the pins was truly touching. Moments like these remind us why continuing to connect with and honor our veterans is so important.
