2025 Purple Heart Cane Project Ceremony
In an effort to recognize and honor brave combat wounded veterans and gold star families, we are carving and decorating eagle head canes with veterans' information. There is no charge for the canes. They are presented with our respect and gratitude. This annual ceremony at the NATIONAL U.S. NAVY UDT-SEAL MUSEUM 39th Annual Muster in Ft. Pierce Florida was recorded by USA WARRIOR STORIES Producer Ross Rowlinson.
