Garden Party
Four veterans are saluted by the Boston Celtics as "Heroes Among Us."
Four military veterans from the Tufts dental community were honored by the Boston Celtics’ “Heroes Among Us” program during a home game at TD Garden on December 6, 2018. Robert Kasberg, associate dean for admissions and student affairs; Brent Mullen, D20; Charles Rankin, professor of endodontics; and Keith Nguyen, D20, led about fifty intrepid trekkers from the dental school on the Tough Ruck, a 26.2-mile march before the 2018 Boston Marathon, raising more than $14,000 to benefit the Military Friends organization and the New England Center and Home for Veterans. (The Celtics were winners that night, too, beating the Knicks, 128-100.)
