Mission BBQ lunch for Vet Info

Mission BBQ • Vet Info Appreciation Lunch A heartfelt afternoon at Mission BBQ in Doral, where Vet Info was honored for its continued service to Veterans and the local community. Councilman Rafeal Pineyro of the City of Doral joined the gathering, showing strong support for the mission and the people behind it. Guests enjoyed Mission BBQ’s signature plates — great BBQ, classic sides, and the unmistakable hospitality the restaurant is known for. What began as a community appreciation lunch quickly transformed into a surprise celebration for Capt. Bill Watts of Vet Info, turning the event into an impromptu birthday gathering filled with laughter, camaraderie, and genuine gratitude. This album captures the moments of service, fellowship, and the shared commitment to supporting those who have served.
