Last night I had the privilege to serve as the Master of Ceremonies for the All-Service Academies’ Ball. It was an awesome event celebrating cadets and midshipmen in the Delaware Valley. The high point of the night for me was meeting West Point cadet Ella Gross, who shared with me that her desire to attend a service academy stemmed from the @travismanionfoundation Character Does Matter program at her grade school led by veteran mentor @rjfay13. It was an awesome reminder as we close out 2022 to the work that continues through TMF, and the veterans that continue to lead our important mission! #allservices #cadet #midshipmen #navy #army #airforce #merchantmarine #characterdoesmatter #ifnotmethenwho
