                                Hey If you get the bus trip together you should stop on the way home at the Shady Maple smorgasboard in east earl, pa.
                                Its located about tem miles from maple grove dragway so you can keep it in mind if you are in the area and like to eat.

                                                Thought you guy’s night find this interesting . I was told by Bob Kieser that the Shady Maple refused to serve some of our servicemen who went to eat there wearing there uniforms . We used to go there all the time until we heard about this from Bob . I guess they have something against the army and war .

                                                    Maybe we should stop there anyway and show them what some older vets think of the way they are treating our boys…I think that would be FUN!!!!!!!

                                                        The shady Maples website addresses this claim that servicemen were denied service. I am a frequent customer
                                                        at shady maple and have seen soldiers in uniform eating there. The local tv station investigated asking people
                                                        posting this were you there and witnessed this? All answered no but they heard about it and forwarded it.
                                                        Did bob kaiser see it or did he just hear about it? I have seen military personel eating there.
