President Cindy Suchan and 2nd Vice President Cathy Williams of the unit tell me that they are spreading the word about the program in hopes of encouraging members of the community to contact them about a Blue Star Banner presentation.
Now a little history.
Hudsonhubtimes.com - Veteran's Beat: Hudson group hopes to rekindle Blue Star banner tradition:
"On April 4 there will be a gathering of veterans and their supporters, including
The Gathering Eagles (www.gatheringofeagles.org) and Gold and Blue Star Mothers,
on the Mall in Washington, D.C., to celebrate the victory of our brave troops in
Iraq, according to Jim Szabo of Ohio Vets for Freedom, in Macedonia.
'Many have argued for some time now that victory in Iraq was not only impossible, but
that it was not even quantifiable,' said Szabo. 'This victory is the result of a
strategy known as 'the surge' that was successfully implemented by the men and
women of our armed forces, and those Iraqis who had the opportunity, at risk of
their own lives, to play a major role in determining their own future."
