Friday, Dec. 12, 2008Vets raise funds to help stop military fraud
- grector@macon.com
WARNER ROBINS — Middle Georgia’s informal group of Vietnam veterans has another fundraiser. Last year, it was help for military families with a mom or dad deployed overseas. About $3,700 was turned over to the Salvation Army for that purpose. This year, it’s support for a Missouri couple who maintain a Web site for rooting out military frauds — wannabes who claim wartime exploits, especially prisoner of war status..... To contact Gene Rector, call 923-3109, extension 239. |
