Veterans Day Parade 2012 NYC Chinatown

I want to personally thank those individuals who participated in this year's parade: Jason Tom, Raymond Tom, Alexander Tang, Bayer Lee, Henry Hom, Harold Moy, Justin Moy, Yin Leung and Jimmy's 15 month son. Veterans day is an important day to celebrate as Veterans are one important aspect of this society. So, whenever you see a Veteran, do say "Thank you" to him or her. It is not just Veterans day where we thank those who serve and protect this Nation, it is everyday to give them the recognition.

Here are some pictures from the parade:

Our Vice Commander Alex attended Boys' State 2012

Our Vice Commander Alex attended the American Legion Boys' State at SUNY Morrisville, NY in June 2012. After speaking to him briefly upon his return, he recommends all eligible highschool juniors to participate in this program next year. After 5 days at Boys' State, he has acquired new knowledge about government functions as well as basic training by the Marines. "It was definitely educational but some parts were challenging... Overall, it was a very rewarding experience." - Alex Tang. Boys' State is conducted every year by the American Legion. For more information, please contact our Post. The website for Boys' State New York is http://www.americanlegionboysstateny.com/
