Veterans return a thank you to their own support system during annual program By Cindy Aguirre-Herrera (Seguin) -- Although Monday was the national observance of Veterans Day, veterans in Seguin and Guadalupe County are reminded that their service and sacrifices are observed and recognized each day in this community. Whether it be from local leaders, veterans organizations, non-veteran organizations, businesses or church leaders, the extension of support for veterans does exist. Helping to celebrate these American heroes at this year's Veteran's Day Program in Seguin was James Doty, Retired U.S. Army Brigadier General. Doty served as the guest speaker for the program held Monday morning at the American Legion Hall. Doty spoke on this year's theme which appreciates all "those who support our veterans, their families and caregivers."
Doty says a community's own commitment to its veterans should also be applauded. "I'm also a service officer for DAV Chapter #61. I do that as a volunteer job and it's very rewarding but our building is donated by the city of Seguin. I think we lease it for $1 a year in perpetuity. Having that facility so that we can meet with veterans and work their disability claims, two days a week, every week is a tremendous asset that a lot of the DAV Chapters don't have so I think that's important. Judge (Kyle) Kutscher took over the Veterans Treatment Court when it wasn't certain whether or not, it was going to be able to continue in Guadalupe County so we don't take those kinds of things for granted. We understand, it does take a whole community to support veterans and I appreciate the fact that we have some local leaders who really help," said Doty. See VETERANS, page 3
