All --
yesterday, Eivind, John Colburn and I proudly accepted the attached on behalf
of all of you who have so generously helped throughout the past year with
Project Healing Waters. The Chiefs of the Physical and Occupational Therapy
Clinics at Walter Reed hosted a Thanksgiving Lunch to recognize the ongoing
contributions of the volunteers that help them day in, day out, in the
rehabilitation of the wounded men and women in the Clinics. Both officers
spoke from the heart when they said that they and their staffs deeply
appreciated the work the volunteers do, and the positive impact we all
have on the rehabilitation of the wounded. PHW was one of perhaps a dozen or
more organizations and individuals that were recognized. It felt very good
to be included in such company - all doing wonderful work for our servicemen
and women. Eivind indicated that one elderly couple, both former military, have
been coming down to the clinics everyday for the past 4 or 5 years, meeting and
helping every new wounded and their families!
I hope this
Thanksgiving finds all of you enjoying the
