We thank those of you who supported the Combat Veterans running for Congress with donations, those of you who worked in their campaigns, and those who contacted friends within the states the Combat Veterans were running in to ask them to vote for the endorsed Combat Veterans For Congress.  We wish the Senator and Congressmen who were elected this year “Fair Winds And A Following Sea”!
