Why not add a Coast Guard, Marine or Navy service member to your upcoming holiday gift list, suggests the military affairs committee of the Greater Williamsburg Chamber of Commerce. The gift would go toward providing $300 each to military personnel as part of the chamber’s fifth annual Home for the Holidays campaign, said committee chairman Jim Icenhour, who also chairs the James City County Board of Supervisors.
In 2021, the chamber and local military installations in Yorktown realized that many military members at the Coast Guard Training Center and the Naval Weapons Station — which are in the chamber’s service area — did not have sufficient funds to make a trip home during the holiday season.
