The American Legion distributed gift cards and funds to purchase equipment to the Warrior Transition Battalion at Joint Base Lewis-McChord near Tacoma, Wash. The donations came from the Legion’s Operation Comfort Warriors program.
Operation Comfort Warriors is a program dedicated to meeting the needs of wounded, injured or ill military personnel by providing them with comfort items not usually supplied by the government. OCW ensures that patients at U.S. military hospitals and warrior transition units are given items like sweat suits, DVDs, puzzles, electronic devices, books, calling cards and more. OCW also provides larger items such as ping pong tables, entertainment centers, computers, kayaks and other recreational goods for use by wounded warriors in common areas.
