Monday, November 12th, is Veterans Day.   In this story we take a ride around the town of Cold Spring with local VFW (Veterans Of Foreign Wars) Commander Mark Cervantez as he conducts a special project for our troops serving over seas.  Recently the Cold Spring Area VFW has been collecting donations from drop locations in town, packages them and mails them to our troops in Iraq.  He shares with us how the project began and how the local VFW became a part of it. This story also includes a tribute to some of the area soldiers presently serving and those recently returned from military duty.
