Stepping Back in Time


Dear Brother Knights and Blessed Sacrament Parish Family,

You are invited to join us as Brother Frank Devita, long time parishioner and a World War II veteran, recounts his story - Stepping Back in Time. A gripping story of the beach landing at Normandy on D-Day, in which he crewed on a Higgins Landing craft personnel vehicle.

In a special ceremony on June 6, 2014, in memory of the 70th Anniversary of the invasion of Normandy, Frank was awarded the National Order of the Legion of Honor.

Frank has had numerous speaking engagements, both in the United States and France, and has been interviewed by Tom Brokaw on NBC’s Today Show.

All KofC members and Blessed Sacrament parishioners, family and friends are welcome to attend this special evening.

Where: Blessed Sacrament Parish Hall
When: Wednesday, November 28, 2018 at 8 PM (Please arrive no later than 7:45)
Admission: Please bring a can of food to donate to the VA

Sincerely,
Vincent Scafuto
