Douglas County Veterans Monument Foundation is pleased to announce that on March 5, 2015 the Board of Directors approved its first grant of assistance to a veteran in need who honorably served in the United States Army.
This US Army Specialist states that the Army taught him discipline, teamwork and responsibility. It must have instilled a strong sense of patriotism in him for life as well, as he concluded email remarks about his service with: “To this day I would go to war for my Country if I was ever called to serve”.
