Green visits with wounded U.S. Service Members

Washington– Congressman Gene Green (D-Houston) visited with wounded United States Military servicemen and women who are recovering at Walter Reed Medical Center in Washington, DC. The visit took place on Monday, December 22, 2003, and Green brought small gifts and greetings from his constituents.

“It is hard enough to be away from family and friends during the holidays, especially when you’re in the hospital” said Green. “I’m honored to spend time with these heroes who fought so bravely in our country’s effort to liberate the Iraqi people.”

In the spirit of the holidays, Green delivered gifts to thank the members for their service, and to express appreciation. The gift bag included an ornament, a phone card and a notepad.
