Below is a press release from Congressman Seth Moulton’s Office:
MARBLEHEAD, MA — Congressman Seth Moulton will host his 10th annual Vets Town Hall at on Monday, November 11, 2024 at 1pm in Marblehead.
Congressman Moulton hosted the first Veterans Town Hall in Marblehead in 2015. The idea, conceived by author Sebastian Junger, was simple but powerful: to provide a forum for veterans to share the pride, grief, or quiet appreciation of life that war bestowed upon them and for non-veterans to listen and to learn. Since then, Vets Town Halls have become a growing nationwide movement.
A Vets Town Hall is a platform for veterans to share their stories of service and sacrifice with their communities. At this event, veterans of any era, who served in any capacity, are invited to stand before their neighbors and friends to share a story or experience from during or after their service.
Non-veterans are encouraged to attend the event, to listen, and to connect with the veterans in their community.
Congressman Moulton will give remarks and share a story from his service as a Marine. A number of other guest speakers from the community will share their stories at the event, and there will be an opportunity for veterans in the audience to do the same.
