Action Floor honors wounded vets at historic NBA game


In support of the Wounded Warrior Project, Action Floor Systems (Mercer, WI) and ProStar Surfaces (Mequon, WI) hosted a pair of wounded veterans at the BMO Bradley Center in Milwaukee on February 22, 2016 for an NBA game that turned out to be a particularly memorable one.

It was the hottest ticket in town as the LA Lakers came to play what would be retiring, future Hall of Famer Kobe Bryant’s last game in the arena. Wounded veterans Dan Rose and Chris White were special guests in the VIP suite, where they witnessed a hard-fought game in which an up-and-coming, young Bucks team held off a furious fourth quarter comeback to defeat the Lakers 108-101.

In a joint statement, Action and ProStar said, “We would like to express our deepest gratitude to Dan and Chris and all wounded warriors and veterans. They are selfless, giving and brave individuals. Their service to our country is so important and they all deserve our respect and gratitude.”

Action and ProStar added, “Dan and Chris are very appreciative of all who help and contribute to the Wounded Warrior Project and want everyone to know how important the project is to returning veterans. Go online to learn how to help at www.woundedwarriorproject.org.”
