My school is doing a fundraiser to send WWII veterans to the National WWII Memorial. Are we allowed to play the music for the dance?

I don't wan to break any rules.

 

Thank you.

M-1--I just got the pics of the four,(4), Pearl Harbor survivors with Gary Swanson standing.

all have been to the WW 11 Memorial in D.C. Gary had just put out a call for raising funds

to send more WW 11 vets to D.C. sometime next Spring. The one sitting with the cane is

one year younger than me. Rocky

I think it will be just great for them to play the VI Corps Music. I am thrilled to play a role in this.

 

Yes, isn't it great the school is doing this. YOU know how important it is because you've "Been der, done dat!"

I will keep in touch. I am working hard to make sure my students, who are the last generation that will know WWII veterans, understand the true meaning and price of sacrifice and freedom.

 

THANKS AGAIN!

Just an update...

 

My eight students raised $1500 this school year and they were able to send 3 of our local WWII veterans on the Flight of Honor. I am going as their guardian on April 10th. Thanks for your music and support!!!!

Dear Alexandra:

 

That is just wonderful. So glad you shared the great news with me. They and you are to be commended for your diligent work. When you see the tears on the faces of the veterans, you will know it was all worthwhile.

 

Smiles,

Marion
