Celebrate Our Troops on Armed Forces Day

Posted by vpfsnews on May 18, 2009 at 9:26 AM

Last weekend, on May 16, the U.S. Department of Defense celebrated Armed Forces Day.  In light of this observance, all of us at Value Place want to thank our military service men and women for supporting and protecting our great country. 

 

For those of you who are not familiar with Armed Forces Day, here is a little history.  The observance was established in 1949 to replace separate Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force Days. The single-day celebration stemmed from the unification of the Armed Forces under one department -- the Department of Defense.  Click here for more information.

 

Value Place is very proud to provide quality, secure and affordable extended stay lodging to military members and their families in numerous communities located near U.S. military bases, including:

 

In fact, one of our military guests who works at Fort Leavenworth was our grand prize winner of the Value Place $50K Refer-a-Stay Giveaway sweepstakes. He has been very pleased with his experience while staying with us.  Click here to see him being presented a $50,000 check, and hear his comments about his stay at Value Place.
