In early October, I had the honor of capturing the Ms. Veteran America award celebration. These ladies are amazing and have proudly or are currently serving in the military. These women as part of the competition take on the platform of raising money and awareness for homeless female veterans and their families. For this campaign the women raised $80K towards the initiative and the organization of Final Salute Inc.
This competition is far from a beauty pageant! These ladies not only compete in talent, questions and stage presentation; but they also competed in a push up competition right on the stage in front of the spectators. It was great to see those that dropped cheer on their comrades in this section of the night. From 25 it went to the Top 10 and then the Final 3 and then the final question. Congrats to Captain Molly Mae Porter who was crowned Ms. Veteran America 2016!
