Praise For Vietnam Vets Events

by Deb Alter

The Village Board of Trustees meeting on Tuesday, August 11, opened with praise and thanks to the people who organized the Viet Nam Veterans Welcome Home Celebration. Mayor David Borge lauded the many groups that had worked together to make the day happen. “It was quite the celebration,” he said, “It was the biggest crowd I’ve ever seen in the [Wood Memorial] Park.” He thanked Gail Smith, Tom McMartin and Joyce Brewer of Voice of a Vet, The Patriot Guard Riders (who were made Hoosick Falls citizens for the day), Heroes at Home, the American Legion, and all the people from the churches that made “miles of sandwiches.” “It was all about working together with organizations that help our veterans,” said Smith.

McMartin and Smith  added thanks to the Highway Department, Police Chief Bob Ashe and his department, Charlie Filkins for filming the event, and Phil Leonard, the Town Historian. [Read more…] about Hoosick Falls Village Board Action
