true story according to snopes

Hollywood still has a few who are worth their salt...Here's one !
Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC (Brook Army Medical Center, in
San Antonio, Texas) the other day. This is where soldiers that have been
evac'd from Germany come to be hospitalized in the States, especially
burn victims. They have buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher
House is a hotel that soldiers' families can stay at, for little or no
charge, while their soldier is staying in the hospital. BAMC has quite a
few of these houses on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost
filled to the brim most of the time. While Denzel Washington was
visiting BAMC, they gave him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He
asked how much one of them would cost to build. He got his check book
out and wrote a check out for the full amount right there on the spot. I
and many of you are familiar with the success of the Fisher House
program and were amazed to hear this story and want to get the word out
to the American public, because it warmed their hearts ! to hear it. I
hope you will help spread it.
By the way... He has a son who is a Marine in Iraq
