BUFFALO, N.Y. — A benefit concert was held Thursday night in Buffalo as efforts to save the USS The Sullivans continued.
With the USS The Sullivans taking on water, there have been several efforts lately to raise money so it can be properly fixed. The concert Thursday night was held at The Cave on Military Road.
The "Blues for Vets" music program teamed up with the Buffalo Naval Park for a fun night of live music.
"It's more than just a ship, it's really a story of sacrifice and remembering those that have fallen in service, which is why we wanted to do something special for them," said Bob James, director of the Blues for Vets music campaign.
James was also one of the musicians performing Thursday night.
The Blues for Vets program has been helping raising money for charities that benefit veterans for the past five years.
