PURPLE HEARTS REUNITED AND OSCAR MIKE FOUNDATION
Purple Hearts Reunited
Host Jim Fausone will talk to Purple Hearts Reunited founder Zack Fike about this national charitable organization that reunites lost Purple Hearts with veterans and their families.
At 11am on 07 August 2018, National Purple Heart Day, the non-profit foundation Purple Hearts Reunited will reunite eight families with their lost Purple Heart Medals. Themed as “Eight on the Seven” (a tie into 8-7-18), this day will honor families who represent our nation’s heroes from World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and the War on Terror. The event will take place in the Kennedy Caucus Room, Russell Senate Building, SR-325, Washington, D.C. This ceremony is open to the media.
When servicemen and women are wounded or sacrifice their life in times of War, our country awards the service member or their family with a prestigious award in the form of the Purple Heart. Certain circumstances can lead to these medals being misplaced, lost, or even stolen.
