"It's just been a great opportunity to say thank you for your service, thank you for your sacrifice, a lot of them have gotten sick from the exposure, the things they're around, the chemicals, toxins, radiation, so it's just an opportunity to thank them in a public forum," said Community Outreach Manager Alex Chapman, Nuclear Care Partners.
