Veterans share a handshake

Stuart News - 7/22/2017

Jim Vohsen (left), of Loxahatchee, a Vietnam War veteran with the Air Force, meets U.S. Rep. Brian Mast during the Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 1041 in Martin County fundraiser Friday at Mulligan's Beach House in Stuart. The event was held to pay for care packages to send to troops serving in combat zones. Vohsen's niece, Khristina Iwasz (not pictured), of Palm City, said her uncle was looking forward to meeting Mast and contributing to the care packages. "It's just important for him to support our vets," she said. "Our whole family are very strong supporters of our vets." Stuart Mayor Troy McDonald also attended as a featured guest and volunteer bartender.
