HONOR OUR SOLDIERS & VETERANS
The Group has been formed to honor Veterans, both living and dead, who have put their lives on the line for our Country. First I wish to clarify I am NOT a Veteran, but this Group is my way of thanking you for your service! There will be other Members too, who will want to say "Thank You". Some might have Family or Friends in the military. I just hoping you'll share your concerns, and Veterans who might ease their fears, or offer some insight that I can't provide! Shelby

  Good day to all veterans out there. I am a US Navy veteran helping to organize the Veterans Day Parade in NYC. We are going on our 90th Anniversary for the parade and also the 90th for the end of WWI. We are having about 200 groups marching up 5th Ave. That comes close to 20,000 people marching. If anyone out there would like to participate you can find out all the information on our web site at www.unitedwarveterans.org . The USS New York, which was just commissioned and has 7.5 tons of steel from the World Trade Center in her bow, will be there. Come one come all and show your support to our troops and veterans. Thank you for your support.
