The Meaning of
Veteran's Day
It is now the eleventh hour. This pause is to remind us that the hour of eleven
has tender significance to all of us. It was on the eleventh day of the eleventh
month at the eleventh hour that guns ceased firing and silence encompassed
the earth. It was as of eleven that the last man in battle died.
- Excerpt from the Eleven O'Clock Ritual, American Legion Post.
In 1918, on the eleventh hour of
the eleventh day in the eleventh
month, the world rejoiced and
celebrated. After four years of bitter
war, an armistice was signed. The
" War to End All Wars" was over.
November 11 was set aside as
Armistice Day in the United
States, to remember the sacrifices
that men and women made during
war in order to ensure lasting
peace. On Armistice Day, soldiers
who survived the war marched in a
parade through their hometowns.
Politicians and veteran officers
gave speeches and held
ceremonies of thanks for the peace
they had won.
Congress voted Armistice Day a
legal holiday in 1938, twenty years
after the war ended. But Americans
realized that the previous war
would not be the last one. World
War II began the following year,
and nations great and small again
participated in bloody struggle.
After the Second World War,
Armistice Day continued to be
observed on November 11.
In 1953 townspeople in
Emporia, Kansas called the holiday
Veterans in their town. Soon after,
Congress passes a bill . introduced
by a Kansas Congressman,
renaming the national holiday to
Veteran's Day.
Americans still give thanks for
peace on Veteran's Day. There are
ceremonies and speeches and at
11: 00 in the morning most
Americans observe a moment of
silence, remembering those who
fought for peace.
Armistice Day was primarily a
day to set aside to honor Veterans
of World War I, but in 1954, after
World War II had required the
greatest mobilization of soldiers,
sailors, marines and airmen in the
Nation's history; after American
forces fought aggression in Korea,
the 83rd congress, at the urging of
the Veteran's services
organizations, amended the Act of
1938 by striking the work
" Armistice" and inserting in lieu
thereof the word " Veterans". With
the approval of this legislation
( Public Law 380) on June 1,
1954, November 11th became a
day to honor American Veterans
of all wars.
Reflecting on
Veteran's Day
With the significance of Veteran's Day in our minds it is my personal
honor to publish a poem written by Mr. Wendell Storms. Mr. Storms is a
talented writer and poet and it is through his writing that we can better
understand the importance and significance of Veteran's Day. Mr. Storms'
brother PFC Charles S. Storms is a Vietnam Veteran and he and his fellow
soldiers in the Ist Calvary are meeting in Washington D. C. this weekend to
commemorate the 40th anniversary of their arrival in Vietnam. We honor
these brave men and all of our Veterans on Veteran's Day and every day.
A Mission and a Dream
( 1966)
They came out of Benning to Charleston by train
Men from each state, Hawaii to Maine
They boarded their troopships and sailed out to sea
These men from Fort Benning, the First Cavalry.
Down through Panama to the California shore
Their ships churned on toward the Vietnam War
Across the Pacific and the South China Sea
They swarmed in at Qui Nhon, then on to An Khe
these men out of Benning, the First Cavalry.
To battle they went, to places unknown
To la Drang and Bong Son up north from Qui Nhon
Through the An Lao Valley they swept like a tide,
But men from Benning have fallen and died
They have given their lives so that men might stay free
These brave young men of the First Cavalry.
Across the Vietnam highlands they flew
To places named Phu Cat, Plei Me, and Pleiku
And who will forget that sight in the sky
As their Hueys and Chinooks and gunships flew by
Into jungle and paddy they carry the fight
Through the rain and the mud and the flare- lit night
They have answered the call, they have heeded the plea
Of Vietnamese people who wish to stay free.
And Oh! if some day a parade they could have
And march up Broadway, the entire First Cav
With cheers and with tears, through confetti and streamers
This parade of Cav heroes may be only for dreamers.
And if high overhead in the blue noon- time sky
Their hundreds of helicopters came whirling by
What a sight to behold, what a thrill just to see
These men who have served in the First Cavalry.
Please turn to page 15 for pictures of PFC Charles S. Storms
and his journey to Vietnam.
Veteran's Day in gratitude to the
Dedicated to the memory of our dear friend
Joan Poppe who we miss so much

N. Y. State Partnership For
Long Term Care Seminar
The New York State Partnership
for Long Term Care was created to
help New Yorkers to obtain and pay
for the long- term care services they
may need in later years. It's no secret
that the first of the Baby Boomer
generation are young seniors now!
As this huge population continues
to age, they will be among the
millions of Americans who may need
nursing home care, assisted living,
or in- home aid.
This unique program allows New
Yorkers to protect their assets while
still remaining eligible for Medicaid
extended coverage. Ask yourself if
your family would be able to cope if
you had a catastrophic illness, or old-age
related maladies. If the answer is
" no," mark your calendar for
Thursday, November 17 at 7: 30
P. M. when Kathleen Ullman will be at
the library to discuss this program
that is only available to New York
State residents. She will be happy to
answer your particular concerns at
the end of the presentation.
Admission is free and everyone is
welcome to attend.

1860 Thanksgiving Holiday
Celebration at Old Bethpage
Restoration
Food is at the heart of every
holiday celebration, and this
November the Old Bethpage Village
Restoration will celebrate
Thanksgiving in 19th century style
with " Turkies, Pies and Other Good
Things," announced Nassau County
Executive Thomas R. Suozzi. This
program will run on two consecutive
weekends: Saturday and Sunday,
November 19 and 20, and Friday,
Saturday and Sunday, November
25, 26 and 27 from 10: 00 a. m. to
3: 30 p. m.
Old fashioned wood burning
stoves, beehive ovens and hearths
will be fired up to prepare a variety of
foods and baked goods, all from
19th century recipes. A fat turkey will
be spitted and roasted in a tin
reflector oven beside the Williams
House hearth. Decorated pumpkin
pies will brown in the brick oven, and
foods that graced the 19th century
Long Island holiday table will bubble,
bake and stew.
Late fall crops were also
preserved at this time of the year for
consumption during the sparse
winter months. Several of these
historical methods of food
preservation will be demonstrated.
Each afternoon between noon
and 4 p. m., historical music including
fiddle tunes and parlor music will
entertain visitors, much as was done
after a hearty Thanksgiving dinner in
1860. Children's stories will be read
at the Noon Inn throughout the day.

programs in general and running
events such as this one in
particular," noted Polansky. " Our
congratulations go to Bethpage
superstar Paula MacCulloch for a
great performance in this significant
event!"
Bethpage's Paula MacCulloch
heads for the finish line.

The playoffs have begun and
although several teams season
have ended early the Falcons rose
to the occasion. After a minor
setback last week the Falcons
bounced back this week to defeat
the Raiders 31- 0 and advanced to
the second round of the playoffs.
Danny Ligowski threw a long pass to
Jimmy Limpert to get the Falcons
rolling. Nick Kelly completed a nice
double reverse to Jake Rotunno
who ran with some nice moves to
pick up on important first down.
Ryan McManus finished the drive
with a pass to Jimmy ( Big Country)
Limpert who dodged several
defenders and scored. Jimmy
Limpert took over at Quarterback
and drove the team down the field
with passes to Dylan Reggio and
Brendan Hoffman. The drive was
capped off with Jimmy Limpert
throwing a bomb to Danny Ligowski
for the touchdown. The air attack
continued when Danny Ligowski
threw a 30 yard pass to Zachary Licht
and the Falcons could not be
stopped. Billy Chappell, Eric Adams
and Joe Morgan added to the overall
offensive effort with a strong
running attack. Coaches Tom
McManus and Brian Limpert agree
that the offense was great but
defense wins games and the
defensive standout for the Falcons
goes unanimously to Anthony
( Nails) Colletta who was all over the
field and helped keep the
opponents out of the end zone.
The Bethpage Falcons have earned
a bye based on powerpoints and
advance to the semifinals of the L. I.
Championship.

EDITOR'S NOTEBOOK
On Sunday, November 6, my family and I attended the Nassau County
Vietnam War Monument Dedication at Eisenhower Park. The 12 foot
tall bronze statue, which depicts two joined hands with dog tags
draped over each hand, will forever be a tribute to the brave men and
women who fought for our country in what was a difficult and
controversial war.
Dignitaries from virtually every political venue were on hand and
Veterans from every branch of service and from every war eagerly
awaited the unveiling of this significant statue. Looking around at the
hundreds if not thousands of people who were in attendance I couldn ' t
help but be overwhelmed by the Veterans who all took part in this
ceremony. I must say that I was in awe and quite humbled to be
surrounded by a group of people... by this group of Veterans who in my
mind and heart are true American heroes. I am sure each Veteran had
their own story to tell. Each was dressed in the uniform of their branch
of the military. Each Veteran was so justifiably proud. Each a hero.
My children and I listened to the story of Nick Graziano, Chairman
of the Nassau County Monument Fund and also a Vietnam Vet. He
told of his feelings of being isolated and spoke of the traumas of war,
both physical and mental. Most importantly he told the audience that
after returning home from Vietnam he never actually felt like he was at
home. That was until today... until the unveiling of this monument. On
November 6 at 59 years of age, Nick Graziano was finally welcomed
home. As he told his story however, an elderly gentleman, no doubt a
WWII Veteran sat and listened attentively. He nodded in agreement
with the all of the feeling that Mr. Graziano expressed and it was
evident in his eyes and the medals on his chest, that he too, had seen
and felt his share of pain. At the end of Mr. Graziano ' s recollections
he received a standing ovation. As we were all applauding, this elderly
gentleman turned towards my two sons, pointed at them and asked
each to promise that they will always remember the sacrifices of the
brave men and women who fought for this country. '' Don 7 let these
kids forget us!" he said. " If they forget all of us will get lost. "
His words were very powerful to my sons and I and without
hesitation we told him that we will not or could not ever forget what he
and his fellow Veterans have done for us all. As he walked away he
looked back one more time and said l, If you always remember us then
we are always home. "
Each of us in this great country has an obligation to our Veterans.
We are obligated to remember. We are obligated to respect and we are
obligated to never let their sacrifices be forgotten. We are obligated
because our Veterans were obligated, as well. Each obligated by their
hearts, by their pride filled minds and by the country they loved, to
fight for our freedoms today. There is in my mind no greater hero than
a Veteran. And so on Veteran ' s Day and every day we all need to vow
to honor / hem, remember them and make sure they are all HOME.
God bless this country and the brave men and women whom we
ur> proudly and thankfully call Veterans.

Monument Dedication
The monument replicates the handshake Vietnam Veterans
use to greet one another. The two hands rise out of a map of
the Southeast Asia theatre of war while cupping dog tags
whose chain is wrapped around them forever bonding together
the soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen who served.

The " Bethpage Horror"
Was A " Bethpage Hit"
On October 29 and 3( fh the
usually quaint and quiet street of
Romscho in Bethpage, was virtually
transformed into Goblin Street, as
local residents joined forces to
present " The Bethpage Horror." This
two- day charity Halloween festival
was the brainstorm of John Ferrara
and Al Aliamo, who for years have
been decorating their homes in their
ghoulish best to celebrate
Halloween.
Last year these two men and
their families decided to turn their
passion for Halloween into a
charitable event with proceeds
going to the Bethpage Community
Foundation and this year they
decided to pull out all the stops and
expand their ghostly decorating
skills to include nearly every house
on the block! This was quite an
undertaking, as one can only
imagine the amount of man- hours
that went into transforming so many
homes into a frightful feast for the
eyes and imagination! On top of all
the creativity, logistics and hard
work that went into constructing all
the props, mannequins and horror
scenes, John and Al were
challenged with drenching rains and
high winds. Let's just say at times
Mother Nature was not very
cooperative.
In spite of all the obstacles,
however, these two creative ghouls,
with the help of neighbors and
friends like the Cereoli family, Stiffa
family, Lana Copeta, Tom Slattery,
the Chiavaro family and many
others, worked together to insure
that this year's " Bethpage Horror"
would be the best ever and to their
credit it certainly was.
Featured at this year's horror fest
was the unbelievable musical talent
of a Bethpage band called One
Night Stand. They were
OUTSTANDING and played every
style of music from oldies to current
tunes, which had the crowds
dancing in the streets. Raffles were
held during the two- day event and
each night hundreds of residents
stopped by to be a part of what has
turned into an annual night of horror
and fun for Bethpage.
This year's event raised over
$ 1200 for the Bethpage Community
Foundation, which in turn helps
those less fortunate right here in our
own community.
Halloween, which has been deemed f
by many as a night of mischief has \
turned into a two- day event which is
truly a treat for not only spectators
but for all of the families that will be
helped with monies raised by this
frightfully fantastic event!
Congratulations and thanks
should be extended to all those
responsible for making the
" Bethpage Horror" a Bethpage
reality. Everyone who attended the
event is eagerly anticipating what
the " spirits" on Romscho Street will
have in store for them next year.
With their ghoulish minds feverishly
at work already, John and Al along
with their ghostly buddies on
Romscho Street, are certain to
make next year's event more horrific
than any ghoul could ever imagine.
This colorful skeletal soul was keeping our piano- playing devil in perfect harmony
with all the other spooky props.
This frightfully festive crowd took a break from their scare tactics to pose for a
picture with Legislator Ed Mangano. From left to right in the hack row are Jim
Stiffa, Maryanne Cereoli, John Ferrara, Ed Mangano, Al Aliamo, Al Chiavaro
and Karen Chiavaro. Left to right in the front row are Lana Copeta, Tom Slattery,
Linda Mangano and Jack Cereoli. From the looks of this picture it seems like Ed
has the scariest costume of all!
Every inch of John Ferrara ys home was transformed into a treat for Halloween
enthusiasts of all ages. This huge angry demon was the centerpiece of John's
ghoulish home transformation this year.
" Is there a doctor in the house?" Yes, indeed there was hut this doctor was
obviously out of his mind!
The winner's circle was full ofhappy faces and big smiles. Pictured above are the
ers of the various raffle prizes which were held during the two- day event!
winnei
Yo, Ho, Ho! Pirates of the Caribbean made a pit stop on Romscho Street this year
and the spirits spooking this front lawn would have frightened Captain Jack
Sparrow himself.

The big, small, scary and fairy
nice gathered in Bethpage School
District's High School Cafeteria A for
a special Halloween celebration.
Members of " Students Putting an
End to Cancer ( SPEC)" at Bethpage
High School once again hosted a
Spectacular Halloween Party for the
Winthrop Cancer Center for Kids.
The afternoon was jam packed
with fun activities including pumpkin
painting, mask making, toilet paper
mummification, musical chairs,
balloon animals, and of course, pizza
and pretzels. " These kind of outings
are special for our kids," commented
Maria Kavan, Winthrop Hospital's
Cancer Center for Kids
Development Specialist. " They have
a pretty stressful schedule and are in
the ambulatory suite on a regular
basis receiving chemo or platelets.
The treatments are rough, so a party
like this is a chance to run around,
be silly, and just be little kids. They
look forward to it because it really lifts
their spirits." The honored guests
and even some family members
were adorned in costumes to join in
on the fun and excitement.
Since its start six years ago at
Bethpage High School, the SPEC
organization has maintained a strong
membership and continues to grow
even beyond the District. " The
group initially started with a young
boy named Brad Jerson whose mom
was diagnosed with Breast Cancer,"
shared the group's current Advisor
Leslie Scueeri. " He was the
motivating force. He wanted to make
a difference. Meetings are always
overflowing with students who want
to get involved. They do all the work
and realize the importance of giving
their time to a good cause. When
you give, you end up receiving
back. Today is just as much a
receiving day for my kids as it is for
our guests." Ms. Kavin added, " The
students here at Bethpage are so
generous with their time. They could
' be hanging out at the mall, but they
choose to be here. It's wonderful
and very kind when children help
other children." It's not all parties.
Students donate their time by
volunteering at events hosted by
the Cancer Center for Kids and
getting involved in various activities
that promote cures for cancer. They
work to spread awareness
throughout the community and
beyond.
Group members feel they are
successful in making a difference
and getting the community involved.
Co- President Danielle Olberc
shared, " We always invite students
to come join us at our Halloween
party and a lot of nonmembers get
involved in helping out. We are
thankful to Emil's Nursery who
donated the pumpkins this year for
the kids & Pumpemell's who gave
us a nice discount on the pizza."
" We always have a great time with
the kids and enjoy seeing them
have fun. I think that is the best
part," added Co- President Tiana
Yom. The proof of success in the
group's work was visible on all the
guests faces; some covered with
paint and others with crumbs, but all
with smiles.

<% Gma McGovern
You've finally done it! After scrimping and saving, brown bagging and
doing without, you have saved enough for your down payment on your first
home. Congratulations! Now what?
Most people think their next stop is an open house or two. Your first stop
on the road to home ownership should be your bank or mortgage
professional. You really need to know what you can afford before you go
shopping. We would all buy a Rolls Royce, but most of us realize we can only
afford a Chevy. Buying a house is no different.
You can go where you already have a bank account. Banks and Mortgage
bankers are direct lenders. This means they sell you the mortgage directly.
They have access to only their programs, and their rates are usually very
competitive. Mortgage Brokers do the shopping for you. They have access to
a wide variety of banks and their programs. They charge for this service, but
can be a God- send if you have any issues. They are also a wealth of
information about special mortgage programs such as first time home buyer
programs.
You will notice that I said " buy" a mortgage. Let's be very clear. No one
gives you a mortgage. You buy it with the interest rate and fees you pay. It's
an important distinction. If you think of your mortgage as a purchase, you will
be much more aggressive on rates and fees. If you have good credit, they
want your business. Don't be afraid to shop around for the best deal for you.
In speaking to a mortgage professional, you will need to be able to give
them some basic information so they can run a credit check on you. Be.
prepared to frankly discuss any ' blips' you may have on your report. They will
ask you about your income and current expenses. You want them to have a
clear picture of your finances and credit history.
It can be an intimidating experience the first time. Don't be afraid to ask
questions, and a lot of them. Make sure you clearly understand what your full
payment will be, including taxes and homeowners insurance. If you don't feel
like your questions are not being clearly answered, hang up and call
someone else. This is a competitive business. A good mortgage person,
whether from a bank or a mortgage broker will be glad to answer all those
questions. You should NEVER have to pay to get this kind of information. If
they ask for money before they will talk to you, walk away.
Make sure you ask about, additional costs. The generic term for these is
closing costs, but that can mean a number of different things. In addition to
that hard- saved down payment, you can expect to pay between $ 12,000 and
$ 25,000. This amount will vary according to loan type and amount. These will
include fees, pre- paid interest and escrows for taxes and insurance. Some of
these terms will be new to you. Everyone learns about this while buying their
first home. Go ahead and ask all those questions. Knowledge is indeed
power in this transaction.
If you know what you can afford, you will find house hunting is less
stressful. Once you have established your price range and location, then call
your local realtor. ( Like me!).

Veteran's Day

This photo of my brother Charles standing with my mother on
the front lawn of our parents' home in Hempstead, New York
was taken by me in the summer of 1965. We were getting a Tew
last minute photos before driving him to the airport for his flight
back to Fort Benning. He was an Army PFC, a draftee, and had
just finished training with the newly formed 11th Air Assault
Division which became the First Cavalry Division in July of
1965. When we said goodbye to Charles at the airport that day,
we knew where he was going.
By mid- September of 1965 he was in South Vietnam having
made the long voyage in a convoy aboard the troopship Simon
Buckner.
My interest in the Vietnam War and my writings and poetry
about the struggle to save South Vietnam were born with the
arrival of my brother's first letters from the central highlands
and a place called An Khe.
This is a photo of the troopship Simon Buckner on which my
brother sailed from Charleston, South Carolina to Qui Nohn
harbor, in South Vietnam. On board the ships in the convoy
were 20,000 members of The First Cavalry and 400 of their
helicopters.
