Thank you, Metro Veterans

Excerpt taken from Metro Matters blog [ [link removed] ] by General Manager, Michelle Allison:

I would like?to express my gratitude for all of Metro?s military service members, past and present. I am a daughter of an Army veteran, and Veterans Day has always been very important to my family.

This morning, I?had the honor to join Metro Leadership Team members and colleagues at Atlantic/Central Base to raise the U.S. flag in honor of Veterans Day and to thank all our veterans, military service members, and their families for their selflessness and service.

Last year, you may have seen the stories we shared about two Metro veterans,?Matt Canady and Paul Lang [ [link removed] ]. This year, veterans Wan-Lin Tsou and Chris Cappelletti were gracious enough to share their personal experiences with us?including their background, anecdotes on military life, and why they chose a career at Metro.

The West Seattle?Water Taxi will run seven special round-trip sailings on?*Friday, Nov. 10,?*(Veterans Day observed) to help fans get to and from the Lumen Field pitch to cheer on the Seattle Sounders FC in their climactic playoff match against FC Dallas.

Due to the?holiday, service is focused on the afternoon and evening hours, and neither the Vashon or West Seattle routes will operate in the morning, Friday, Nov. 10. The picturesque and congestion-free trip between West Seattle and downtown Seattle takes as little as 10 minutes.

Service will start?at 4:30 p.m. and run through 11 p.m. on?November 10, 2023.* The last sailing from Pier 50 to West Seattle departs at 10:45 p.m.?*
