Those who wish to participate can send the following information to the Borough President’s office: a photo of the Veteran in uniform, their name, rank, branch of service and/or any other info they might want to share (limited to a sentence or two). The office will then post the information to its social media accounts and on StatenIslandUSA.com during the month of November.
“I am extremely thankful to all those who have dedicated their lives in service to protecting this country,” said BP Oddo. “I want to encourage the community to participate in this program to ensure the service and memories of those who served are not forgotten.”
Any information that the public wishes to share can be sent to Alexey Chandler at achandler@statenislandusa.com. Submissions will be accepted through November 1st.
