On Member Monday we highlight our members involved in their communities. Today we highlight Leo Luskey, an active member of Minnesota Disabled American Veterans Chapter 39. Luskey, who grew up on a farm in the township of Tyrone, Minnesota, enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps and served in the Vietnam war. Since 1983, he founded Tyrone Transportation, Inc., and recently retired. Six years ago, Luskey, a lifetime DAV member, conceived and chaired the first MN DAV Chapter 39’s Golf Tournament. The event would become one of the Chapter’s largest fundraisers, supporting veterans in Anoka and surrounding counties. This year the Chapter honored the Marine Corps veteran, by naming the event after him, https://anoka39davmn.com/leo-luskey-annual-dav-golf…/ His selfless service to veterans and his community continues today, as he was recently recognized in a feature story on June 25, 2021 on WCCO-TV. Officer Reggie Larson, Blaine Police Department, was interviewed with Leo Luskey, who donated the funding to purchase and train Blaine’s new K9, Tyrone.
