Former Miss USA Ali Landry attended a Microsoft sponsored United Service Organizations ”Salute Our Troops“ for the military community this Veterans Day.
Landry presented the Effort Award to Patti Patton-Bader, who, according to press, is “a mother of a soldier who started a group for volunteers to “adopt” soldiers. The group has now sent tens of thousands of care packages and hundreds of thousands of letters to make sure no soldier is forgotten while serving.”
"The holidays are a time for family and sharing, and Microsoft is pleased to help make the season brighter for those who are giving so much,” said a Microsoft rep, adding, “We hope to make this Veterans Day a memorable, one-of-a-kind experience for our service members, volunteers and their families, all of whom give so much for our nation.”
Other celebrities taking part in the day included actresses Connie Britton and Minka Kelly from the NBC show “Friday Night Lights”; actresses Joely Fisher, Selena Gomez, and Connie Stevens; Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling; actors Lenny Clarke, Mike Lombardi and Jim McCaffrey and actresses Sherri Saum and Callie Thorne from the FX Networks show “Rescue Me”; Miss Teen USA, Hilary Cruz; Miss USA, Rachel Smith; and Miss Universe, Riyo Mori.
