Scott's View: Military Families: Thinking Of Special Dads And Grads

June 10, 2010

Scott's Corner

This is the time of “grads and dads,” celebrating school graduations of family and friends. Our daughter graduates from college this weekend and we were thrilled to learn that she is also a commencement speaker! We couldn’t be more proud. Being the outdoor lover she is, I know she’s going to love a golden congratulatory bouquet from 1800Flowers. They have the best selection of flowers and other gifts. Remember - Veterans Advantage members have an exclusive 30% discount, good every day of the year! So, check out our benefit with 1800Flowers today.

Father’s Day, June 19, is right around the corner, too. Dell and Apple products make perfect gifts for this occasion, especially since you have great savings with Veterans Advantage.

I hope you enjoy this week’s feature story on Deshauna Barber, a symbol of inspiration for women and our military. As our nation pauses to commemorate the Army’s 241st birthday on June 14, we honor the service of our soldiers who serve, Army Veterans and their families. With service members like Deshauna, our Army is ready for the future!

Cover Story: How & Why WeSalute Was Founded 25 Years Ago

WeSalute founders Scott and Lin Higgins have spent a lifetime in the military community, from Scott’s combat service in Vietnam and the service of Lin’s father in WWII, to serving families and veterans through the creation of memorials and parades as part of charitable and government initiatives. It was this lifetime of service that led them to establish WeSalute, originally founded as Veterans Advantage, and to continue giving back.
