The airshow is one stop on a nationwide tour that aims to increase public awareness of disabled veterans and provide information about DAV programs and benefits. The C-47 which was used extensively by the Allies during World War II, shares a modern-day mission with DAV -- reminding people of the sacrifices veterans make for freedom. As brave men and women return from the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan, the DAV's services and advocacy are as relevant today as at any time in the nation's history. "The DAV is thrilled to bring our message of volunteerism and support to our nation's sick and disabled veterans to this airshow. We believe the men, women and children who will visit this airshow are the patriotic, military-friendly citizens that have helped make this nation so great," said DAV National Commander Moses McIntosh. "The DAV is proud to be among this crowd, and meet those who want to know more about our service to veterans." Disabled American Veterans, representing nearly 1.3 million disabled veterans, is a non-profit organization founded in 1920 and chartered by the U.S. Congress in 1932. It is dedicated to one, single purpose: Fulfilling our promises to the men and women who served. www.DAVFlightTeam.com End
