STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Every year, thousands of men and women who wear the nation's uniform run through the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel in honor of one man who wore the city's.



Now, the Stephen Siller, FDNY, "Let Us Do Good" Children's Foundation wants to return the favor.

On Veterans Day, Nov. 11, the charity will hold "Operation Support," a golf outing at the borough's four golf courses, followed by dinner at the Hilton Garden Inn, Bloomfield, to benefit Staten Island service members and their families.

"The military is the biggest presence we have at the run each year," said Frank Siller, referring to the Tunnel-To-Towers Run, which traces the last steps of his firefighter brother on Sept. 11.

"We are so connected, the firefighters and the military. The reasons we are in Iraq and Afghanistan are because of what happened on Sept. 11."

Siller stood on the grounds of the Marine Corps League in Sunnyside yesterday to announce what he termed a "very special golf and dinner event."

On that day, the LaTourette Golf Course, the Silver Lake Golf Course, the South Shore Golf Course and the Richmond County Country Club will be closed -- except for those participating in the fund-raiser.

The cost for golf and dinner is $175. Dinner only is $75. Sponsorships are also available. Siller hopes to raise $100,000 -- and needs at least 500 golfers and 1,200 at the dinner to make it happen.

Dinnertime auctions will include a round of golf with former Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, a day on the set of "CSI: New York" with Staten Island native Carmine Giovinazzo, a painting by Gregory Perillo and a fur coat from Staten Island Furrier.

The money raised will be used for care packages, medical care, holiday gifts for the children of service members and support for the soldiers when they return home. A portion of the money will be set aside for families of those killed in action.

Siller was joined yesterday by Assemblyman Michael Cusick (D-Mid-Island); Lee Covino, the borough president's veterans affairs adviser; Richard Sheirer, senior vice president of Giuliani Partners and former director of the mayor's Office of Emergency Management, and representatives of Staten Island Project Homefront, the Staten Island Supports Our Soldiers Resource Center, Northfield Bank and SI Bank & Trust.

Several U.S. Marines also stood at his side.

"We're all family on this Island," Cusick said. "We take care of each other like family members. This is the perfect example."

attention, je sais qu'ils peuvent très bien s'y être retrouvé en simples amis... je ne critique pas

Ils ont fait des fautes dans son nom de famille ^.^
Amis, amis, amis
Merci Perl pour l'info !

Je pense comme toi Lindsay. Les acteurs de csi ny gardent leurs vies privées en dehors des médias, donc pour avoir une confirmation, je pense que c'est meme pas la peine d'y penser. Mais bon, on peut supposer que vu que Carmine et Vanessa sont assez souvent ensemble à différents évènements ils peuvent être plus que de simples bons amis.

Moi aussi j'espère en voir des photos de notre Carmine. Quel grand coeur il a cet homme!!

Ah que je l'aime ce Carmine mdr

Merci pour l'info Linds.

Carmine Giovinazzo AT&T Pro-Am,
