Stop & Shop’s Bob Young, and historic re-enactors from the Museum of American Armor welcome 80 year-old Ted Miele (fifth from left) and his 90-year old brother Neil (4th from right) and three generations of the Miele family to the American Armor Museum in Old Bethpage. The Miele brothers who wrote about their late brother John, were among the contest participants recognized by the Museum of American Armor, for an essay saluting the heroic efforts of U.S. military veterans. The Miele family and other participants in Stop & Shop’s “Operation Hometown Heroes” program were given the opportunity to ride aboard the museum’s historic armor vehicles thanks to a joint effort coordinated by Stop & Shop, Nassau County and the Armor Museum that invited customers to write about the heroes in their own families.
