Veterans Day Telethon

What began as a radio talk show 2 years ago is now blossoming into a full scale virtual telethon much like the ones our mentor; Jerry Lewis does for MDA on Labor Day. This event not only shares the experiences and memories of Veterans and their families but highlights the success and triumphs that our Veterans have brought to this Country not just on the battlefield but back here on our home soil.
The goal of the "Veterans Day Telethon" is to remind each of us that our "Flag Still Stands For Freedom" and our Veterans need to know we are supporting them both here and abroad. Using the POWER of Social Media, we will again make our flag and its colors blatantly visible across the globe with a unified statement of support for our troops, both past and present.
American Legion Post 1066 in Massapequa will host this year's 24 Veterans Day Telethon on November 6th (all day) as it broadcasts simultaneously over a number of internet broadcasting networks. This event is dedicated to sharing memories and stories of our "fallen" soldiers; celebrations of the servicemen and women who are still serving this Country; and showcasing the talents and successes of our returning Veterans.
