Capito Helps Recognize HMS
ARLINGTON, VA, November 5, 2007 – Rep. Capito with Harry Siegel and Deputy Secretary of Defense Gordon England at a Pentagon ceremony to recognize service-disabled veteran small business owners. Siegel's firm received the honor of being one of the nation's top service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses.
Both in an E-News Update Letter and at the Department of Defense SDVOSB Awards Ceremony, Congresswoman Capito has helped recognize HMS Technologies, Inc. The following letter is what she wrote in the E-New Update for November 9, 2007:
Friends and Colleagues,
This has been an exciting week for me as I saw a Martinsburg veteran recognized as one of the nation’s top service-disabled veteran small business owners, participated in a White House ceremony to honor a West Virginia artist and continued work on legislation to support long-term care for our seniors and help address our nation’s mortgage crisis.
Martinsburg Veteran Recognized
Harry Siegel is a service-disabled veteran small business owner from the Martinsburg area who was honored at a Pentagon awards ceremony earlier this week. Harry’s firm received recognition from Deputy Secretary of Defense Gordon England and was named one of the nation’s top veteran-owned small businesses.
I was honored to be invited to the ceremony and congratulate Harry on his success. It’s always wonderful to see West Virginians recognized as leaders in their field.
Sincerely,
Shelley
Member of Congress
