| “The Affirming
the Commitment Campaign reminds us
that we owe veterans an incredible
debt of gratitude. What have you experienced
personally that contributes to your
understanding and appreciation of veterans
and their military service?” |
“Just knowing that our veterans have made the ultimate sacrifice ‘to
give up their lives in the name of freedom’, makes it easy for me to lend
a hand or offer a simple smile to express my gratitude, respect and thanks for
what they’ve done.”
—Dawn Davis, Human Resources Specialist
Human Resources Management Service
Perry Point VA Medical Center |
“As a veteran of both the United States Army and Air Force, I understand
the sense of pride that comes from military service. Having served in various
military conflicts, I understand the feeling of accomplishment, sacrifice and
camaraderie that comes with having served under stressful and hazardous situations
and environments. Now working for the VA Maryland Health Care System, I have
a deeper appreciation of what these men and women have done, and the roads they
paved for individuals like me and our country.”
—Timothy Downey, Resident Care Assistant
Baltimore VA Rehabilitation & Extended Care Center |
“My father is a Vietnam era veteran, retired Captain USMC. I have listened
to him share countless military adventures.
I am so proud of his accomplishments, about how his military experience
has shaped his value system and how he has instilled this in me and my
siblings.”
—Tracy Franks, BSN
