Bethesda Veteran Visit

Take a good look at your legs. Aren't they great? They make you so mobile and agile. Now imagine that they are gone. Are you less of a person? Is it possible you could be more than you were?


For the three young 20-something Veterans we visited last Monday at Bethesda Medical Hospital, the loss of a limb or more, seemed to grow a larger spirit. They were not going to give up on their dreams, and they all will most definitely continue to serve and defend our country in some manner.


While the loss certainly affected them in negative ways, we saw first hand how it can develop increased determination in those injured Veterans and in us. 


Determination on our part to remind others that what happened to those Veterans still happens everyday. We hope the Apparel of Honor t-shirts we donated to them and their families brightened their day.


As for the rest of our week in Washington D.C., we were privileged to meet quite a few people with fabulous insight and direction regarding our business. We're especially thankful to the CEOs at the Inc. Magazine  Military Entrepreneur Program, part of the Inc 500/5000 conference for the fastest-growing privately held companies in the U.S, a list we are not on, YET.

Vaughn Family Auction on Facebook

Aaron Vaughn was one of the 22 Navy Seals killed in a helicopter crash on August 6th. As described by his family, he was a man of faith and true patriotism. 



Friends of his family created a Facebook page and are hosting an auction to raise funds for his wife Kimberly and two children left behind. ANY and ALL funds raised will go to the Paypal account created by the family for the Vaughn children at the end of the auction.

We donated a few of our Apparel of Honor t-shirts to the auction. They are planning to send out details regarding bidding tomorrow and then the auction will open Monday. Go "like" the page to find out more details and bid on some of the more than 100 items donated once the auction opens. 

During such a tragedy, it's good to see people coming together to help a Veteran's family. 


Thanks!
