Silver Stars

Do you know a veteran who was wounded or suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome?
Contact Tippecanoe County Veterans Service Officer Randy Fairchild. (765) 742-1796. He is trying to get a special award to them. They will receive the Silver Star award. Silver Star Families of America is giving US service members and veterans a certificate and a special banner. Fairchild said men and women will be recognized at the Memorial Day ceremonies at Memorial Island after the city's annual Memorial Day parade (starts at noon, May26th) . For more information on this, contact Randy, or go to the organization's website. http://www.silverfamilies.org/.
Randy needs names by May 1st, so he can make sure has all the banners and certificates by Memorial Day.
