The evening’s presentation will feature readings by veterans, an interactive exercise with writer Shawn Wong, former Air Force pilots, winemakers JJ and Kelly Menozzi, and Tom Skerrit. Skerritt is best known for his roles in “Top Gun,” “Steel Magnolias” and “Picket Fences.” Warren Etheredge will emcee the event. Wine from Aluvé Winery will be available by the glass.
