Send Holiday Greetings to Our Bravest

A message from Willy Nazario, commander of Chapter 21 of the Military Order of the Purple Heart, chairman of the Hudson Valley Veteran's Committee and a Cortlandt resident.

When filling out your Christmas cards this year, please do what I'm going to do: Take one card and send it to this address:

A Recovering American Soldier

c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center

6900 Georgia Avenue,

NW Washington, DC 20307-5001

If we pass this on and everyone sends one card, think of how many cards these wonderful, special people, who have sacrificed so much would get.

"It is better to give than to receive." With that said, remember that locally there are winter coat drives going on for the less fortunate. There's also the Marine Corps "Toys For Tots Drive" going on at various locations.

Thank you, have a safe and joyous holiday season,

Willy
