This World War II veteran is certainly an inspiration. While others were safe at home, he was across the world fighting for freedom. Clearly, he has not lost the spirit that carried him through the war. Of course, we greatly respect everything great Americans like Pete DuPre’ have done for us. We do, however, think that we could do more to give back. That is why we support The Greatest Generation Benefits Act. This bill would give so much back to those who gave the most during WW II and Korea. Learn more bout this proposed legislation and sign our petition here.
