Thank You - Thanksgiving With Our Troops. What You Can Still Do?

American Legion Veterans Thanksgiving Great Lakes Naval Base Sailors Morton Grove

Greetings My Neighbors,

Some pics of our annual American Legion Post gathering and a huge thank you for the folks who came out to share their Thanksgiving with our Troops. We had 49 sailors and marines enjoy a full day of R&R. Hope to see our volunteers and more again next year.
The Troops will be back.

Also, more than a few of you have reached out and asked what else can be done. Easiest and quickest is to make an online donation to our local young veterans via Chicago Veterans. Here's their webpage to donate and learn more: https://chicagovets.org Thank you!

That's it. Look well at the photos. They are of those who are headed into harms way for you and for me. They will all give some and some will give all.

Questions on donating? Please ask. Jac.Charlier@gmail.com
