It was an amazing night...the Oregon All Military Gala was held on Saturday, August 23rd at the Salem Conference Center. This event hosted six Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, Gold Star families and several hundred Oregon military heroes. It was truly history in the making. Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, Art Jackson, Richard Pittman, Roger Donlon, Rudy Hernandez, and Nicki Bacon came to Oregon as our honored guests. These men are amazing and they just keep giving to their country, with wisdom, patriotism, and honor.
SSgt Christian Bagge, US Army and Disabled veteran returned to the Oregon All Military Gala as our guest. Last year Christian was our guest speaker and we were awed by his heroism. This year Christian brought his beautiful wife, Melissa.
Anjee and Bill came home from Arizona to attend the Gala. Jeff Clippinger and Rich Cervantes also flew in to be part of the celebration. It was a night to celebrate "Real American Heroes" with "A Salute to Patriots" as the evening theme. Dinner and dancing were included, but among all this Military Royalty, who needs to eat....
