On Sunday, December 1, 2013, Ex-Captain Richard Straub and this writer, along with Mary Cash and Donna Riveiro of the LFD Ladies Auxiliary, set up a table at the Village of Lynbrook's Winter Celebration on Atlantic Avenue to allow residents and children to sign Christmas cards to our wounded warriors in hospitals at Bethesda, MD, and at Fort Bragg and Camp Lejuene in North Carolina.  Lynbrook firefighters personally presented those cards to the wounded warriors receiving treatment at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center at Bethesda on December 6th.
