Visiting Veterans

Thanks To Yanks visited veterans in 2 nursing facilities in Milford, MA. They brought along Julie Wenck who sang for the residents. The veterans were also treated to cupcakes provided by Girl Scout Troop 30570, pizza and of course Valentine cards courtesy of the Girl Scouts and members of the Milford High National Honor Society. There were many heart-warming interactions. Mike Shain, president and founder of Thanks To Yanks, said he was especially touched talking with a 101-year-old nurse who described her WW II transatlantic journey to Europe surrounded by U-boats.
