Johnson honors Dallas Veterans

On November 4, 2013, Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson hosted a ‘Veterans’ Day Celebration’ at the Veterans Resource Center of Dallas. Congresswoman Johnson honored the service of veterans from World War II, Korean, and Vietnam wars.

“We know the challenges veterans face when they return home from duty. The Veterans Resource Center has found an effective model to meet the challenges that our veterans face and they are taking steps to eliminate those challenges for these individuals and their families,” Congresswoman Johnson said.

“This Veterans’ Day, let us not forget the veterans. As a Member of Congress, I carry the responsibility of protecting and caring for our veterans and their families with me each and every day.” Congresswoman Johnson presented tributes to Navy veterans Thomas Benton, Verbon “Buck” White, and Frank DeVault. She honored World War II Army nurse Ann PreJean. Congresswoman Johnson also honored Korean War veteran Frank Zoeller.

“Nothing brings me closer to my roots then coming here to being amongst those who have served. As the daughter of a veteran, I will be forever grateful for those that answer what I consider the highest calling, serving in the military,” Congresswoman Johnson said in closing.
