Amazing Air Force Band

This is the band “Sidewinder” – they are part of the 571st Air Force Band, 131st Bomb Wing, Air National Guard. They are deployed as the U.S. Air Forces Central Command Band. Absolutely amazing – not only are they proud members of our armed forces, they are incredibly talented!

Support Our Troops with a Cup O’ Joe!

This is a great program put on by Green Beans Coffee. It only takes $2, and it will bring a smile to a soldier (and a cup of coffee to their hand!) stationed overseas. It’s easy to do and a great way to support our troops that won’t be home for fireworks – and if they do see fireworks, they’re likely to not be the good kind! Send a Cup Of Joe now!

Fly Delta? No Thanks!

I don’t think I’ll be flying a Delta flight when I travel. Delta has issued an apology, but it sounds like typical corporate-speak. If the soldiers’ travel orders dictate 4 bags, it shouldn’t matter which class of ticket they have – and I’m sure Delta isn’t in the habit of upgrading soldiers to first class, anyway…

Hickernell to Recognize Area Vietnam Veterans

Rep. Dave Hickernell will host a ceremony in Leffler Chapel at Elizabethtown College in March to honor veterans of the Vietnam War living in the 98th Legislative District.

“Veterans returning from the Vietnam War did not receive the heroes’ welcome given to soldiers returning from previous wars. In many cases, they were disrespected and abused by an angry public,” said Hickernell. “I hope that this event will help make it clear to them that their country has not forgotten them. Their service is appreciated and will be remembered.”

During the ceremony, Hickernell will present each veteran with a specially minted bronze medal and certificate in honor of their service.

Vietnam veterans living in the 98th District, or those who know them, are encouraged to contact Hickernell’s Elizabethtown office at (717) 367-5525 or his Columbia office at (717) 684-5525.

The 98th Legislative District includes Conoy Township, East Donegal Township, West Donegal Township, and part of West Hempfield Township (Farmdale and Ironville) and the boroughs of Columbia, Elizabethtown, Marietta and Mount Joy in Lancaster County, and Londonderry Township and part of the borough of Middletown in Dauphin County.
