This is the kind of story that illustrates what Jean Schmidt is about. The excerpt below is something of a throw away line in a piece about the unit in the Cincinnati Enquirer:The reservists plan to take a flag that was flown over the U.S. Capitol that was presented to the company by Rep. Jean Schmidt.I think it is great that the congresswoman took the time to meet with these heroes and present them with something which the unit clearly values.
“Upon our return, the flag will be returned to the unit,” Penkova said. “I was impressed that the congresswoman took the time to get to know each one of us and our families.”
Forget the politics...this was a very classy thing to do.
