The third Semper Cares Initiative operation, Project Charlie, had the privilege to honor Paul Dugas on Veteran’s Day 2018. To find the deserving beneficiary for this operation, Semper Solaris requested nominations to learn more about the stories of the American men and women that are so deserving of our support and honor. After countless nominations, Paul Dugas, a former marine, was selected. Paul was nominated by his neighbor Dev Zaveri-Tabb, who is also a veteran. Dev shared Paul’s story with us — from his years of faithful service to his severe back injury to his fight with cancer, Paul always kept his perseverance and spirits high. It was an honor to meet Paul and stand alongside him through Project Charlie!
