Every Sunday afternoon, the intrepid World War II veteran Col. Michael Schirm (U.S. Army, ret.), 85 years old, drives from his Burbank home across the hill to Brentwood to stand with his fellow veterans when they rally, from 1 to 4 every Sunday, in front of the National Veterans Home, to save it from outside interests. Col. Schirm is Commander of the Military Order of Foreign Wars of California.
