It has been 20 years since 9-11-01 and the threats to our liberty continue to exist. The enemies our country faces are real and the unseen wounds of combat over the last two decades are substantive. Our U.S. Navy SEALs have been vital to the defense of our country, and they continue to protect our freedoms every day.
For this reason, Anna and I hope you will join us at the 10th Annual Navy SEAL Foundation Midwest Evening of Tribute. We are excited to honor our friend, David Herro, Chief Investment Officer, International Equities at Harris Associates, LP, as our 2021 Patriot Award Recipient and hear remarks from George W. Bush, 43rd President of the United States.
Our Naval Special Warfare warriors take the fight to the enemy in every corner of the globe to protect us here at home. The Navy SEAL Foundation provides a comprehensive set of programs specifically designed to reduce the stressors associated with life in Naval Special Warfare. The event on September 14th will ensure we can support our warriors and their families from all they have endured and into the coming years.
In closing, this will be an exceptional evening and one we hope you will not miss.
Sincerely, Anna & Greg Brown 2021 Event Chairs
