Navy Veteran accomplishes impossible dream!

Posted by a person who wishes to remain anonymous: BLIND NAVY VETERAN ACCOMPLISHES THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM The Navy has a tradition of helping their own. Elroy day, a former bubble head has an incredible story to tell. He was blinded in a home invasion in North Carolina in 1995. He recently applied for and was accepted into the Purple Heart Service Foundations job training program to teach him how to become an at home call center agent. Against all odds, working with a disability that would stop most everyone else, he graduated. He completed 600 hours of hard training and now he is reaching out to other blind and vision disabled veterans to tell them about the opportunity that he had. He wants other blind veterans to come and join him. You see, he has a dream of opening a blinded veterans call center. Staffed by former members of the US military who are now blind, for what ever reason. You can help with his dream, just spreading the word. If you know of any veteran who is vision disabled, have them contact Elroy Day immediately . They can email him at eday@carolina.rr.com or call Ms. Thompson at 703 835 3531. And remember, the Navy has a tradition of helping their own. ~~~~~~~~~~~

    It is to those like him we owe our freedom, yet so many deny it. So many forget what makes it possible to enjoy freedom. So many people forget that the very people they ridicule are those who risk their lives so they can have the right to do so.

    This is for them:
