Review for Center for American Veterans, Denver, CO, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

It has been my distinct pleasure to accompany two student/veterans groups back to the fields of battle in Normandy and the Netherlands. In my thirty-five years of experience in higher education, I do not believe I have seen a more exciting educational venture. These students are receiving an education being with these veterans. They have a lot of questions about the war; however, so much of what they are learning are life lessons, that is, lessons in character, perseverance, and integrity. The students come away from this experience with a clearer understanding about the concepts of duty, honor, selflessness, friendship, and love of country. I have heard so many of the veterans say that being around these "kids" have really either helped restore or renew their faith in the younger generation of our country. Thank you for giving all of us the opportunity to be a part of this worthwhile venture, and please know that we stand ready to assist your organization in any way possible.
