 What's in one day? 24 hours, a few meals, work, sleep, sometimes a single day can change everything. On September 16, 1969, while serving Vietnam, the enemy detonated a 500 pound bomb that was rigged as a landmine. I lost my right hand at the wrist and my left arm at the shoulder. Without help, it can take an entire lifetime for those suffering from the wounds of war to rebuild from the wake of a single day. I wasn't sure if I was going to live and honestly I'm not sure that I wanted to live. That to me is the darkest point in my life. From the very beginning, DAV has been there for me. Every day, DAV helps our country's heroes, just like Bobby, receive the care and assistance they deserve and you can help. Your pledge today of just $19 a month says you haven't forgotten our veterans and the sacrifices they make. I am very grateful to all the support that DAV gave to me. However, I know that there are many others just like me who need your support. You've pledged allegiance to our country. What better way to honor that oath than supporting those who have put their lives on the line for you and me. When you join with other patriotic Americans and give today, we'll send you this official DAV blanket as a thank you and a reminder of your commitment to help our brave servicemen and women. Without the DAV, there is no way that I'd be where I am today to see I do have a purpose in life. There are so many veterans just like Bobby who need our help when you call today and help us provide the care they need. Please go online or call DAV right now.
