“As Americans celebrate Thanksgiving this year, it is an important gesture for Members of Congress to give up their holiday and spend it with our troops who have sacrificed so much time with their families in service to our nation,” said Chairman Takano. “It is an honor to share our Thanksgiving meals with servicemembers and veterans currently based in South Korea and show our gratitude on behalf of the American people.”
