This afternoon, my photographer, Nellie, and I were invited to cover a veteran's luncheon at the Pheasant Hills retirement community in Susquehanna Township, Dauphin County, where residents there invited about a dozen veteran's in from the Lebanon VA Hospital.
First, I want to sincerely thank the organizers for inviting us to this very special event.
Second, the warmth and positive-energy that Nellie and I felt in the room the entire time we were there was amazing!
We were not only welcomed with a "hello," but were hugged when we arrived.
And, the respect to those who have served was refreshing. A 21-gun salute, taps, a wreath placed at the flag pole, full-color guard presentation, the pledge and the National Anthem.
So, this Veteran's Day, try to talk to a vet. It'll mean to world to them...and, you'll definitely learn something and leave with a great feeling.
