Nice story, Jim. Here's another about a 100 yr. old vet who's raised 40 mil. to date for COVID19 health care workers.

I've been following Cp'n Tom since the beginning - another 'lump in the throat' moment
It's a crying shame that efforts like his should be necessary but we should be thankful his sort are still with us

Interesting, for what it's worth,
that the Choctaw Nation made the initial contribution

and now the return gesture is being made

further West.
