Miami Beach vet finally reunited with medals lost on way home from Vietnam War

When United States Air Force Sgt. James Anderson returned from the Vietnam War, he had lost more than one part of himself. Anderson’s duffle bag, holding his earned medals and uniforms, never made it back from Da Nang, Vietnam, after his homecoming on Jan. 12, 1969, he said. It was the same as an airport losing a suitcase, but the contents inside were irreplaceable. Nearly 60 years later, the Veterans of Foreign Wars Miami Beach Post 3559 was able to make it right. During a Saturday ceremony inside The Betsy Hotel, Anderson was presented with a new set of medals and uniforms to replace the ones that went missing. “I was shocked. I felt so great. I have difficulty making a speech or something, but that was really great,” said Anderson, 79, who lives in Miami Beach. Anderson said he does “pretty good now” recounting the war. He couldn’t before. “All I thought about was the 8,000 kids — teenagers, pretty much — getting killed,” said Anderson, who suffered war-related illnesses that comprised his lung function. “That’s what bothered me after the fact. It still does today.” Shortly after arriving in Vietnam, he tripped over a bag, Anderson said. A

University of Miami trustees chairman to lead Byron Donalds' transition team

Republican Governor-elect Byron Donalds has selected Manuel “Manny” Kadre, the chairman of the University of Miami Board of Trustees and CEO of a luxury car dealership chain, to lead his transition team. While the business executive and Republican donor was not a high-profile surrogate of the Donalds campaign, he was spotted at a campaign retreat in Miami Beach in September, according to reporting by Florida Politics , and gave $25,000 to Donalds’ campaign that week. Kadre had also been present at early discussions between Ken Griffin and Gov. Ron DeSantis about funding a Republican primary challenger against Donalds, according to reporting by NBC News last year. Griffin later became Donalds’ biggest campaign donor , contributing $15 million to his political committee. Donalds made Ryan Smith the executive director of his transition team. During the campaign, Smith was the chairman of the Friends of Byron Donalds PAC, which raised over $155 million to usher Donalds to victory last week. In a post-election memo last week, Smith attributed Donalds’ win during a nationwide blue-wave election to Donald Trump’s endorsement of Donalds, his six-to-one fundraising advantage over Democratic candidate David Jolly and the campaign’s massive voter turnout operation.

The Miami attorney sent 435 text messages - after the restraining order

A North Miami Beach lawyer claims her psychological state after going through a hysterectomy clouded her ability to fully understand the injunction against stalking to which she agreed. An Orange County Sheriff’s Office arrest report says Ginna Arevalo understood it well enough to not send the other party 435 text messages, including one that said “Just bc I am a dangerous person who wants to harm you, your daughter, and your employees.” An Orange County jury concurred, convicting Arevalo of aggravated stalking after injunction. With that July verdict, the state Supreme Court hit Arevalo in October with a suspension from the Florida Bar. That’ll be in effect until the professional discipline case is heard by case referee Judge Ariana Fajardo Orshan. Meanwhile, Arevalo’s appealed her conviction while beginning to serve her probation that’s scheduled to run until Jan. 13, 2031. Arevalo’s been a member of the Bar since 2017 with a previously clean discipline record.
