The Daily Sentinel (Grand Junction, Colo.) 'VA invests in local adaptive sports for Vets' "On Tuesday, Oct. 13, two western Colorado nonprofits received more than $276,000 to support adaptive sports programs for veterans...the money was part of a nationwide funding opportunity that invested $16 million across 91 adaptive sports organizations."

The Journal Record: 'OKC VA Medical Center receives $28.9M for maintenance' "The Oklahoma City VA Medical Center received nearly $28.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026 for three maintenance projects: modernizing elevators, upgrading infrastructure and renovating its 5N unit for patient privacy.

#OTD October 26, 1947 – After World War II, transport ships carried American war dead from the European and Pacific theaters returning 6,251 bodies. The fallen troops were returned to U.S. soil via the Brooklyn Army Terminal to be returned to their families. A procession later made its way through New York City.

The NYC city council along with Mamdani will continue to chip away at the culture and this is one example.
