Denzel Wash ington and his family visited the troops at Brook Army Medical Center, in
San Antonio,Texas (BAMC) the other day. This is where soldiers who have been evacuated from
Germany come to be hospitalized in the United States, especially burn victims. There are some
buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher House is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay,
for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying in the Hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses
on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled most of the time.

While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how
much one of them would cost to build. He took his check book out and wrote a check for the full amount right there
on the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear this story and want to get the word out to the American
public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it.
