Milton Resident Serving in Army Will be Featured on TV Spot

You may see a familiar face on your TV on Veterans Day.

Milton resident and Army First Lt. Benjamin Pariser, who is stationed in Kabul, Afghanistan, will be shown in a “shout out” message from troops serving at various locations oversees.

WCVB-TV will salute the troops beginning with the EyeOpener newscast at 4:30 a.m., and at various times throughout the day, and also on Channel 5’s digital channel 5.2 and MeTV Boston.

“WCVB’s ‘5 Star Salute to Veterans’ is our special way of honoring all of our local veterans plus the men and women currently stationed overseas who are actively serving their country,” said Bill Fine, WCVB President and General Manager. “We hope these messages will help everyone take a moment to pause and reflect on the incredible service these individuals continue to provide to our country.”
