The memorial will present “Heroes Among Us: Veterans Voices with Greg McQuade” on Feb. 12 from 7 to 9 p.m.
The Emmy and Edward R. Murrow award-winning WTVR-TV CBS6 reporter will offer a retrospective of his “Heroes Among Us” video segments highlighting Virginia military veterans and active service members.
The program in the memorial’s Veterans Hall is free, but preregistration is requested due to limited seating. Free parking is available in the memorial’s surface lot and parking deck at 621 S. Belvidere St.
McQuade, a Massachusetts native and Northeastern University broadcast journalism graduate, joined WTVR-TV in October 2020 as a political and military reporter. He produces the weekly “Heroes Among Us” segment and anchors “CBS6 Weekend Morning” on Saturdays and Sundays.
“We consider Greg a true friend of our veterans and practically a member of our Virginia War Memorial team as he is so often here doing research and filming his ‘Heroes Among Us’ segments,” said Virginia War Memorial Director Dr. Clay Mountcastle.
