Local Hispanic business and civic leaders were also recognized for their contributions to their respective communities. The evening's keynote speaker was Brigadier General Mr. Hector E. Pagan. Gen. Pagan said, in part "... Hispanic Heritage Month serves as a moment to pause, reflect, honor and celebrate all those great examples of leadership Latinos have given - and continue to give- our nation; a nation that is made stronger by the beautiful tapestry of cultures and ethnic groups, who have found in our soil a land of solace, tolerance, openness and opportunity. ...We are honored by your sacrifice and love for our country. We serve in an army of volunteers and I am proud of the fact that many in our community elect to serve.“

  3. Mr. Paul Chehade, President of Solidary Foundation and a Senior Advisor to LULAC International Embassy, said, "... The importance of working together is to maintain our national security and to recognize the United States Army's efforts in its readiness to assist the affected population in case of disasters.

LULAC Ambassador Roberto Canino emphasized, in part, that, .."It is the soldier, who salutes the flag, who serves under the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, that we pay tribute tonight, together with our Hispanic Leaders in support of our military." We Hispanics have always defended America with unwavering valor and honor, Canino said. He added, "..Were it not for the brave, there would be no land of the free, therefore, it is important for our community leaders to support our military and to promote and maintain the democratic principles of this country."
