I
just thought I'd let people know that Anita Windon was shown tonight
on ABC's Profiles From the Front Line; a six episode reality series
that documents the danger faced every day by America's soldiers on the
war on terrorism. A large segment profiled SSG Gene A. Vance, Jr., a
Morgantown resident who died on May 16 in Afghanistan.
I
had completely forgotten that ABC was there filming the memorial for
this special, even after talking with them, or I would have put the
word out to see if the bell was shown. They showed a small clip from
the memorial service and bell ringing. Although Alpha Phi Omega was
never mentioned, naturally, it was nice to know that we played a small
part in helping to honor this man and made you proud to be a part of
this organization.
It's
wonderful to see APO working with such worthwhile efforts that mean
so much to so many!! So congratulations to LO for being shown on such
an important show and to Anita, for returning from Canada for such an
important event and not getting a speeding ticket in the process!
In
Leadership, Friendship, and Service,
