We at Hat Trick Associates would like to wish you a fun-filled, and safe, Memorial Day Weekend! And let’s all take a moment to reflect on the true reason for the holiday – the brave men and women who have given their lives in sacrifice for the freedoms we enjoy here in America. In light of this, please allow me to share some information about a charitable group of which I’m a part, the Joshua Chamberlain Society, which strives to give back to the Heroes who have served in our military and sacrificed so much, and now need our help more than ever. Thank you, and look for us at our regular time on Monday ~
The Joshua Chamberlain Society – The mission of the Joshua Chamberlain Society is to identify and adopt wounded or fallen military service members who have made such an extraordinary sacrifice for our country. In the same fashion that our service members have sacrificed for their country forever, the Society is dedicated to making an on-going commitment to our Heroes for the remainder of their lives (or the lives of their families, for fallen Heroes). Meet our first Hero, Sgt. Joshua Eckhoff.
