Last night's dance at the King, Wisconsin Veterans Home (pic heavy)

The Veterans Home at King, Wisconsin is home to ...
339 Army Vets
131 Navy Vets
91 Marine Corps Vets
104 Air Force Vets
2 Coast Guard Vets

Every year on Veterans Day the King Home hosts a dance and party for the residents. It's a great chance for volunteers to show their appreciation for these disabled vets.

The Justmann Band orchestra provided the music ...



The vets really enjoy dancing ...













Some seem to enjoy it more than others ...



And of course not all the vets are men ...






Special thanks to all the volunteer who showed up to make this day special for these disabled vets.
