Rose Lee Archer, Producer and Host of the Rose Lee Archer Show on ION TV Network, Joined Thousands Nationwide to Pay Tribute and Express Appreciation
PALM BEACH, FL (PRWeb) March 9, 2007 -- Rose Lee Archer is known in the disability community as one of few TV journalists that knows first hand, the life issues faced by persons with disabilities and their families. Rose Lee was a teen mom of a son with intellectual disabilities. She was also her father's caregiver, a WW II veteran who in his final years was an amputee suffering from diabetes and vascular disorder. During the event she shared her own life experiences with the veterans who enjoyed the beautiful grounds and lavish surroundings of the historical Jupiter Lighthouse and Museum. Executive Director, Jaime Stuve, hosted the event, offering tours of the lighthouse as well as a visit to museum to experience the World War II Florida exhibit.
During an on camera interview with Jaime Stuve, Rose Lee learned that the Jupiter Lighthouse was an important Naval Base during World War II. The lighthouse and base played an important role in protecting the Florida coastal region from German U Boats.
Florida was vital for our national defense, due to its strategic location as the first line of defense for the southern United States, the Caribbean Basin, and the Panama Canal. Planes and ships from Florida's bases helped protect the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean.
In 1999, Governor Jeb Bush signed a law providing for the creation of Florida's World War II Memorial. The project was led by the Florida Department of Veterans' Affairs, and involved several state agencies. The Memorial documents Florida's response to the war, including patriotic activities on the home front and the establishment of military training bases throughout the state. In 1940, Florida had only eight military installations compared to 172 military installations by 1943.
Did you know that 16 million Americans served in uniform during World War II and 248,000 were Floridians? Thousands of other Floridians contributed also to the war effort by building roads, working in manufacturing plants, constructing and running military training installations, and operating vital businesses that contributed to the nationwide efforts that preserved the freedoms we enjoy today.
The first peacetime draft in American history was in 1940, when thousands of Floridians began the transformation from civilian to soldier or sailor. They served in all major theaters of the war, and thousands paid the ultimate sacrifice.
By war's end 3,540 soldiers from Florida had died, while naval casualties (killed and wounded) numbered 2,308.
Rose Lee considered it an honor to present South Florida's first ever outreach event during the National Salute to Hospitalized Veterans. "I encourage individuals, businesses and nonprofit organizations to volunteer their time and join forces with veterans groups, schools and media to honor our veterans at their local VA Medical Centers," said Archer. She encourages others to show their appreciation for the sacrifices made by our service men and women by creating community awareness projects that say Thank You for your service to our country all year long.
Rose Lee Archer has been honored with many awards including "Woman of the Year in Television," Small Business Journalist of the Year" and "Best Diversity Initiative in Human Interest." As an independent television producer, single mom and national disability advocate, she works on and off camera to advance the quality of life for persons with disabilities. Rose Lee Productions Inc. and Archer Disability Foundation work together on community outreach programs that promote social and employment opportunities for persons with disabilities.
