Help me honor Veterans in Southwest Washington
|
|
With Veterans Day just around the corner, I’d like to share the stories of some of Southwest Washington’s veteran heroes. I’m asking for your help to do it.
Did you serve in the military, or do you know a Southwest Washington resident who did? I invite folks to send me photos and stories from their military service. I will be highlighting as many veteran heroes as I can on my Facebook page and at jaimehb.house.gov throughout the month of November.
As a Member of Congress, it’s my duty to honor our military veterans by making sure they have access to the resources and support they were promised. Sharing a few of the stories from the heroes who live in Southwest Washington is just one more way I hope to honor their sacrifices.
Send your stories and photos:
Email: share.vet.stories@gmail.com
Mail: O.O Howard House
750 Anderson St. Ste, B
Vancouver, WA 98661
Please be sure to include a short description of branch, title, and assignment for photos. Also, please make sure you have permission to share photos and stories before sending.
