Delphine Metcalf-Foster, Disabled American Veterans’ third national junior vice commander and Major Esther C. Sablan, who commands the 129th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, 129th Rescue Wing at Moffett Field, will make presentations.

A complimentary luncheon for all women service members will follow the ceremony. Door prizes this year include a two-night stay at the Marines’ Memorial Club and a $50 gift certificate to the restaurant there.

For the first time two additional congregations are assisting with planning and organizing the event: Faith Fellowship of San Leandro and its veterans’ ministry and a representative from St. Joseph Basilica here in Alameda.
