Description
In the company of the iconic World War II era B-25 Mitchell Bomber, the DAV Flight Team will appear at Tampa Bay AirFest 2016 on March 19-20th. 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 B-25, which gained notoriety in the famed Doolittle Raid over Tokyo, Japan almost 75 years ago, 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. Disabled American Veterans, representing nearly1.3 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.
