Denzel Washington and his family visited
the troops at Brook Army Medical Center, in
San Antonio, Texas (BAMC) recently.
This is where soldiers who have been evacuated from
Germany come to be hospitalized in the United
States, especially burn victims There are some
buildings there called Fisher Houses.
The Fisher House (click on the link to visit the Fisher House web site)
is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay,
for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying
in the Hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses
on base, but as you can imagine, they are filled
most of the time. While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave
him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses.
He asked how much one of them would cost to build. He took his check
book out and wrote a check for the full amount right there
on the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear
this story and want to get the word out to the American
public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it...pass it on
