The first 50 military members in attendance were given VIP passes to enjoy practice. The day featured giveaways, raffles and discounts for service members, but was truly represented by the mutual admiration of service members and the Redskins players.

“It’s very great to give back to us and give us the opportunity to meet some of the players and treat us like we mean something,” MM3 Petty Officer Chris James said.
