Review for Operation Stand Down Tennessee, Nashville, TN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

StandDown, Nashville began when several caring individuals gathered at the Maxwell House Hotel on 8th Ave N, to hear a presentation about other like type organizations in the US, especially in CA. It has grown from that meeting and its first 3 day event, which by the way, cost less than $5000 in donated money to the outstanding organization it is today. Its strength has always been the Nashville VA Hospital, Tennessee Department of Veterans Affairs, State Employment Security, Metro Nashville Govt Agencies and employees, the various Veterans Organizations, Bell South Volunteers, Tennessee National Guard, (Army and Air) and all of the volunteers who have come out each year. It is wonderful to see the mission of Stand Down grow and assist in many ways never envisioned. I am very proud to have been a part of this truly outstanding accomplishment. Ron Moore, COL (R), US Army

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

so many wonderful ways. Volunteers of Stand Down always receive more than they give.

Ways to make it better...

I could have spent more time with the volunteers and the Veterans.
