After a record year that included the creation of satellite sites in Virginia and Maryland, the D.C. office of the nation’s largest non-profit veteran services provider is proud to welcome public officials, veterans, and community members as they honor our nation’s heroes. Speakers will include Air Force Veteran Trevino Terry, National Daughters of the American Revolution Treasurer Janet McFarland, and U.S.VETS — Washington D.C. Executive Director Clifton Lewis.
