This special Military Appreciation Night will also include an in-game tribute presented by CITY Furniture that, instead of focusing on one nightly Hero, will celebrate all 'Heroes Among Us' honorees from the past decade and others who have served and sacrificed.
"It is a tremendous privilege to welcome back so many of our 'Heroes Among Us' honorees from over the past decade to celebrate the program's 10th Season," said Panthers President & CEO Matt Caldwell. "As an organization that values service, we could not be more honored to celebrate these military heroes once again, and to continue our tradition of sharing many more veterans' personal stories of selfless service with our fans and community for years to come."
On this special Military Appreciation Night, the Panthers will also host a swearing-in ceremony on the 109 Stage during pregame activities in bowl, and welcome Commander of United States Southern Command, U.S. Army Four-Star General Laura J. Richardson to participate in a pregame ceremonial puck drop. General Richardson is only the second female to attain the rank of four-star general in the U.S. Army, as well as the third woman to lead a combatant command. and is the first woman to lead the U.S. Southern Command.
"We're honored to partner with the Florida Panthers to show our appreciation for all the military personnel and veterans who have given their time and made personal sacrifices to ensure our nation's safety and freedoms," said Andrew Koenig, CEO of CITY Furniture.
Fans will have the chance to write letters to troops outside FLA Live Arena at a table on the JetBlue Tarmac.
