This is an email I received from senator Joel Anderson.Dear Friends,On this Memorial Day, I would like to encourage all of us to think of the selfless heroes whose lives were taken too soon. They sacrificed their precious lives in order to protect our country, our freedom and what we stand for. I am a proud supporter of our military and want to thank those who have served and family members of those who have lost their lives while serving our great nation. Here are some of the events that are happening this Memorial Day weekend that our office has compiled for your convenience. I hope this information is beneficial to you.As always, it’s an honor to serve you.Sincerely,JoelSenatorDate: May 28, 2016Name: Vietnam Veterans of San Diego, Chapter 472 will read the names of San Diego County’s Vietnam War Causalities and Missing in ActionTime: 8:00 A.M.-5:00 P.M.Location: San Diego Veterans Museum and Memorial CenterBalboa Park, 2115 Park Blvd., San Diego, CA 92101More Information: https://veteranmuseum.org/ or 619-239-2300Date: May 28, 2016Name: Remembrance CeremonyTime: Starts at 9:00 A.M.Location: USS Midway Museum - 910 N.
