Abigail Marsters VOD Winner Abigail Marsters, from Wiesbaden High School, recieved the honor of winning the VOD contest at District 1 and Department of Europe. Below is a thank you letter that she wrote to Comrade Ashton. Printed here with her permission. Dear Sergeant Major Ashton, In the wake of the Voice of Democracy award ceremony, I would like to thank you for this opportunity to represent the VFW. I appreciate the effort it takes to organize this contest. Through this, I have been able to reflect on what makes the USA unique and practice my writing and critical thinking in a way that will serve me well in my future endeavors. The scholarship money will help me reach my dreams of going to college to study Experimental Psychology. This has been a fantastic experience. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. If you wouldn’t mind sir, I would appreciate if you would forward this gratitude to other local VFW members involved with making this happen. Sincerely, Abigail Marsters
