HOW DENZEL WASHINGTON DEFRAYED COST OF SOLDIERS' FAMILY BASE IN TEXAS
Don't know whether you heard about this but Denzel was visiting Brook Army
Medical Center, in San Antonio,Texas (BAMC) the other day. This is where
soldiers that have been evacuated from Germany come to be hospitalized in the
States, especially burn victims. They have buildings there called Fisher Houses.
The Fisher House 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 almost completely 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.
