EVENT: 9THAnnual Feed the Troops Thanksgiving Day CelebrationDATE: Thursday, November 22, 2012 (Thanksgiving Day)
TIME: 11:00 a.m. until 2:00 pm
PLACE: America’s Best Value Inn, 2389 Rt 70 East, Cherry Hill, NJ
DETAILS: This is the ninth year the Jewish War Veterans Post 126 will host approximately 300 out of state Soldiers that are currently training at the Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst and will be treated to a surprise traditional Thanksgiving meal, along with entertainment. Due to their training schedule, these service members are unable to be home with their families for the holidays.
This year’s event will again be held at the Palace of Asia Ballroom on Route 70 East in Cherry Hill, NJ and is named for Cherry Hill native, Marine Lance Corporal Jeremy Kane, who was killed in action in Afghanistan in January of 2010.
 In addition, former Jewish War Veterans New Jersey State and Post 126 Commander Arthur Seltzer will be presented the Bronze Star by Colonel Jeffrey A Doll, USA, Commander of U.S. Army Support Activity, Fort Dix. Mr. Seltzer, 87, is a World War II Army Veteran of D-Day, the Battle of the Bulge, and the liberation of the Dachau Concentration Camp. The Omaha Beach Veteran was to have been awarded the Bronze Star in 1966 but never received it. It was only during a recent Fox News Channel segment about Mr. Seltzer’s war experiences that his former commander now living in California, saw the interview and verified the missing information needed for Mr. Seltzer to receive the Bronze Star. (Fox News segment can be found at http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,525264,00.html ) The celebration will deliver a good measure of South Jersey hospitality, great food, and a welcome distraction for soldiers far away from home. Senator James Beach, Chair of the Military and Veterans’ Affairs Committee of the NJ State Senate will serve as the Honorary Chair. Invited guests, Philadelphia Eagle alumni Vince Papale, Mike Mamula and Garry Cobb will entertain and greet the troops. Jill Horner, Miss New Jersey 2000 and Comcast Network anchor and DJ Stewart Balsham will also help us honor and entertain the Soldiers.
As in previous years, local residents, school children and veterans will gather outside of the ballroom in the parking lot to provide a well-deserved and patriotic surprise welcome for the troops as they arrive from the Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, NJ.
Please join us outside the ballroom no later than 11am as we welcome and cheer the arrival of our soldiers. If possible, bring an American Flag with you !
Stay tuned for Rally Times/Locations for the Motorcycle Escort.

A Relic of War Returned to Vietnam Veteran Bernie Mihenski
PLYMOUTH, PA – On September 1st, USMC Vietnam Veteran, Bernie Mihenski, was presented with a piece of his past – from nearly a half a century ago.  Relics of a war, just small tabs of metal stamped with a soldier’s name, rank, serial number and other pertinent information. For collectors, the dog tags didn’t have much meaning, but for the veterans from the Vietnam War, the tags represent more than most of us can fathom….read more
