Kings County Congressman shares Christmas dinner with U.S. troops in Iraq

“While most Americans were able to spend today with their family and loved ones, many members of our military did not have the same opportunity,” said Valadao.

“Spending Christmas with the brave men and women of our Armed Forces was truly the most humbling experience, and I cannot begin to express how grateful I am for their service to our nation.

“While spending the holiday in the Middle East with our troops was an unforgettable experience, I hope when I see them next, it is here at home.”
