Coop....do you know if they are still taking donations??

Certainly. For now I'd suggest using the same address, as I'm sure the post office will forward mail for the normal 6-month (or whatever it is) period. The following organization takes the donations to support these critical dinners:

Aleethia Foundation Inc.
C/O Fran O'Brien's Steakhouse
1001 16th St. NW
Washington, D.C. 20036

It may not be much, but we discontinued our Hilton credit card and moved all our points from their Hilton Honors club (like frequent flier miles) to an airline club we have. The Capital Hilton and General Manager Brian Kelleher blew this big time.

Any idea where the dinners will be after May 5? The Hilton is to have the May 5th dinner but haven't heard anything else.

"They don't want us to go through what they went through. ... The older vets, they said, 'This is not going to happen to this generation of veterans.'"


This is what it's all about people. Don't let the left do it again.

G-d Bless Our Troops. G-d Bless Our Veterans.


Lest we forget.

Fran O'Brien's update.

This ambiance of this restaurant makes me think of a place in Denver called the Trinity Grill, perfect for this sort of gathering.

My hope and prayers are for an old-fashioned barn-raising to get this up and running in a place of its own. God bless them and help them in what they have been and continue to do for these troops.

It may not be much...

It is a great deal! Every little bit helps and you certainly do more than your share. Thanks!
