Operation SEAs The Day Honors Wounded Veterans

SELBYVILLE – Spectators lined the streets in the Selbyville community of Bayside last week to welcome visiting wounded veterans and their families.

Last Friday, 32 wounded veterans and their families received a warm welcome from community members along routes 1 and 54 as they made their way by bus to a concert at the Freeman Stage.

For miles, residents and visitors along the corridors cheered and greeted the families as motorcycles and police and fire department vehicles escorted them to their destination.

Each year, Operation SEAs the Day, a local nonprofit, works with local homeowners and businesses to provide a free, weeklong vacation in Bethany Beach for wounded veteran families.
