For the 3rd year, Steinhafels is celebrating veterans with their Mail Call program to benefit the Stars and Stripes Honor Flight of Southeastern Wisconsin and Old Glory Honor Flight of Northeastern Wisconsin. To celebrate the start of this year’s Mail Call program, there will be a “Celebrating Our Veterans” event at the Steinhafels Superstore in Waukesha today, from 1-3pm. Veterans from World War II, Vietnam, and the Korean War will be on hand to talk with guests. There will be a virtual reality experience that will walk users through the Honor Flight experience in Washington D.C. at the monuments. Mail Call letter donations will be accepted now through April 17th, 2019. For more information, go to WTMJ.com.
Letters can be mailed to “Mail Call 333 W. State St. Milwaukee, WI 53203” to be given to veterans on the Stars and Stripes Honor Flight. For letters to be distributed to veterans on the Old Glory Honor Flight, please mail letters to “Mail Call 306 W. Washington Street, P.O. Box 59, Appleton, WI 54911.” There is also the option to write and submit your letter online at http://MailCallLetters.com.
All collected letters will then be distributed to Veterans to read during their return trip from Washington D.C. on an upcoming Honor Flight. In addition, select letters will be featured weekly in multiple USA TODAY NETWORK WISCONSIN newspapers, beginning Wednesday, December 5th.
