A newsletter from one of our fellow veteran organizations in the Bay Area.
THIS MONTH: APRIL 2021
Spring is all about rebirth, and we are certainly seeing new signs of life around San Francisco and also at the Marines’ Memorial. There is still far to go before this crisis is over, but it does look more and more possible that recovery can begin in earnest before the year is out. Meanwhile, won’t you join us this month for a delicious dinner in Chesty’s Bar & Grill?
It’s only because of your support that 2020 was such a success! Please consider a 2021 contribution to ensure we support even more veterans and their families this year. Thank you!
Also of note for April:
> HAPPY 113th BIRTHDAY to the US Army Reserve!
> HAPPY 73rd BIRTHDAY to the US Air Force Reserve!
