Veterans Day Remembrances
All across Brooklyn tributes were made to remember and honor those who serve in the military.
As Chairman of the NYC Council’s Veterans Committee, I was pleased to join the @UnitedWarVets at today’s parade opening ceremony.
It was a beautiful celebration of our military heroes, & it was an honor to be joined by the Commander-in-Chief @realDonaldTrump. ?? pic.twitter.com/sz8NiSFUq0

In Coney Island, Surf Vets officially opened today providing housing:
On #VeteransDay, I want to thank our veterans who have served our nation with courage and honor to safeguard our freedoms.
No veteran should be on the street. I’m happy to report that Surf Vets housing has officially opened and is housing 82 previously homeless veterans in CI. pic.twitter.com/uCFcVspt6s

Mayor announced legal services for veterans:
Finally, we’re proud to announce that New York City’s supporting new legal services to help veterans who were dishonorably discharged due to sexual orientation or mental health challenges. We’ll help them change their status and get the benefits they deserve. #VeteransDay2019
