To our friends and supporters of Veterans:

Please help us provide a memorable event to thank the Central Florida Veterans returning from their recent tour of duty in the Middle East.

So many of these Citizen Soldier Veterans are returning to their community only to discover that their job has disappeared and their family is in financial distress. They find that they simply cannot pick up where they left off over a year ago. While there are several organizations to help these Veterans, the Corporal Larry E. Smedley National Vietnam War Museum would like give the Central Florida community the opportunity to thank them by sponsoring a very memorable event - a three day cruise to the Bahamas. The Museum’s goal is to offer 500 free rooms to returning Veterans and their spouse or special someone. We then hope that Veterans who have served in previous conflicts will purchase tickets to join them and fill the remaining rooms on the ship. This event would be an enjoyable, stress free three days to look forward to.

The cruise will take place aboard the Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines ship Monarch of the Seas, sailing from Port Canaveral on Friday December 7th, 2012 (Pearl Harbor Day).

How can you help us?

We invite you to become a Program Supporter and/or Contributor.
