Senators Robert and Elizabeth Dole invited 100 members of “Wounded Warriors”from Walter Reed Hospital to Senator Robert Dole’s 88th birthday party this July 22nd. The Doles have been regularly taking wounded soldiers and their families out for a “night on the town.”  For Senator Dole’s 88th Birthday, they invited them to their Washington home. The Doles have also been meeting Honor Flight veterans as the flights come through Washington.  Bob Dole is largely responsible for initiating and funding the WWII Memorial and has always been known for his staunch support of Veterans’ Rights.
