Music to this veteran’s ears
For Veteran Voice
The military can be hard on the ears on a good day. Army veteran Nicholas “Nick” Savasta had bad days, too. The Operation Iraqi Freedom veteran left a lot of his hearing back in a warzone. On Wednesday, June 1, Savasta got it back.
His sixth-grade daughter was with Savasta. Joe Mutter, owner of Mutter’s Precision Hearing Center, asked her a simple question. When she answered, Savasta cried.
“That’s the first time I’ve heard her voice,” he offered in explanation.
Savasta didn’t have to explain. He’d just received a pair of hearing aids donated by the Starkey Hearing Foundation.
