A Fundraiser Luncheon to assist in honoring our
Wounded Warriors and
their spouses was held at the Von Braun Center on Wednesday
October 19th in conjunction with the 5th
Annual “Heroes’ Week”.
Huntsville was honored to host former National Security
Advisor and Commandant of the Marine Corps, General Jim
Jones, USMC [Ret]. General Jones addressed the topic of
“Contemporary National Security Issues of the United
States”. The event was hosted by the Semper Fi Community
Task Force [SFCTF] and serves as its primary fundraiser in
supporting SFCTF’s mission of recognizing and providing
assistance to Wounded Warriors and their families throughout
the year.
During the “Heroes’ Week”, as an expression of this
community’s gratitude and appreciation for their
extraordinary service, a group of Wounded Warriors and their
spouses from our nation’s military services is invited to
Huntsville to participate in a series of community, civic
and social activities in conjunction with Veterans Day.
