About Us

Mission: To honor and recognize the veterans who have served our country, with a special emphasis on the Korean War Veterans, and to inspire the next generation of America's leaders, instilling patriotism in their hearts.

​

Our Goal: 1. Provide veterans with greater opportunities to engage in social activities, build lifelong friendships with other veterans, and take pride in their service to our country. 2. Provide opportunities for young people to engage with the veterans and be inspired by the stories of veterans who served in the Armed Forces at a young age.

​

Our Purpose: Many veterans have kept their war memories to themselves for over 70 years. By providing them the opportunity to share stories of why they joined the armed Forces and their combat experiences, we aim to inspire our youth and instill a sense of patriotism in their hearts. 

2 Corinthians 9:6 (KJV)

But this I say, he which soweth sparingly shall reap sparingly, and he which soweth

bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
