Following up on our December 28th Marines Helping Marines update:
We contracted Cozy Restaurant
(www.cozyvillage.com)
of Thurmont, Md. to cater a New Years Day dinner for the wounded Marines
and their family members . Cozy not only provided us with an outstanding
meal and great service but at the end of the day they informed us that the
owner was donating the entire meal to the MHM Program. What a great
surprise to us and what a gracious gesture for a catering company to do.
Although we contracted for 100 meals they provided enough food for at
least 125 dinners which allowed us not only to provide dinners for the
Marines and their families but for the entire hospital staff including the
Hospital's XO Captain Oleson. If you are in the Thurmont area please stop
by their restaurant have a bite and thank them for their generosity or
feel free to e-mail them with your thoughts.
I would like to thank those who spent New Years Day helping serve these
meals.

Again thank you for your support of
this program. Thanks to you we have now provided Walter Reed and Bethesda
Naval Hospital with over 65 thousand dollars of support for our wounded
Marines and Sailors.
