At our Village Vets General meeting on July 27, we had a visit from the
Veteran's Administration. ey came to present an award to our World
War II veteran Arthur Levine on his 100th birthday. Arthur's daughter
Pat gave us all a little insight into his amazing life. We felt honored to have
Arthur as a member of our club.
