Pancho Is Remembered

Jan 20, 2021 | News

WNY Heroes is a big Bills backer and remembers the family of Ezra Castro, aka “Pancho Billa”. Pancho is pictured here with one of our Army Veterans and his service animal. This memory was made possible by the generosity of the dog’s sponsor, Seneca Creek Casino. Training typically takes a year with one of our three local trainers. The Veteran accompanies their dog once a week at various locations including nearby malls. It should be noted that these animals have more rights and protections under the law than emotional support, or therapy dogs.

To Salute, or Not Salute after Veterans Leave the Service

Jan 22, 2019 | News

Did you know the Defense Authorization Act of 2009 allows U.S. veterans to render the military hand-salute during the national anthem? Previously, hand-salutes were permitted during the raising, lowering, or the passing of the flag while wearing their organization’s headgear. Now that the guidelines have expanded, feel free to exercise your first amendment right while others do the same.

“In my opinion The Will to Survive should be mandatory reading for all High School students.”
-Rick Sepanski,
Senior Master Sergeant (Ret.) USAF

“As a 17-year-old reading this book, my mind couldn’t possibly grasp how I would have acted under such great pressure. My generation has had quite the opposite upbringing. We live in an era of instant gratification free from hardship. Men like John Zubrzycki who fought for our country exemplified tenacity. They never lost their sense of purpose.”
-James George,
Lancaster High Senior
