Washington Social Diary

By Carol Joynt

The rooftop Terrace restaurant of The Kennedy Center was filled on Veterans Day evening, but the faces weren't the usual suspects who dominate the Washington social arena. There was a lot of ramrod straight posture and there were many dress uniforms with knife-sharp creases, shiny brass, and gold braid that ran from neck to shoulder.
But there were also, among the many racks of ribbons and medals, more than a few Purple Hearts, just as there were more than a few guests wearing artificial limbs or riding in wheelchairs.

There are glittering parties every night in Washington, but few can claim the poignancy of this gala affair that was held to honor the Iraq and Afghanistan wounded who reside at Walter Reed Army Hospital.

Joe Flanigan and his father-in-law Jouh Kouisi

...One man in a wheel chair was not an Iraq war veteran. John Kousi is President of the Eastwind Shipping Co., of New York and got his disabling injuries in an Aspen skiing accident, but he feels a kindred spirit with the wounded warriors and plans to volunteer his time to give them comfort. Kousi was there with his daughters and son-in-law Joe Flanigan, star of the SciFi hit "Stargate: Atlantis." Flanigan, who has played Lt. Col John Sheppard on more than 70 episodes of the show, will volunteer some of his time at Walter Reed, also.
