Calling All Napa County Purple Heart Veterans
A letter from Napa County Supervisor Diane Dillon invites Purple Heart veterans to be honored at a special ceremony with her and Congressman Mike Thompson, August 7 at the Veterans Home in Yountville.
As you may know, the recent redistricting of Napa County supervisor districts has placed the Yountville Veterans Home in Supervisorial District 3, which I represent. I am very pleased with the change and am proud to be representing the veterans at the Yountville Veterans Home.
While talking to veterans and researching veterans’ issues, I learned that the State of California was recently declared a Purple Heart State. Therefore, I thought it would be fitting to hold a reception to honor all of the Purple Heart veterans in our County.
