Elizabeth McGuirk, regional community ambassador of MISSION BBQ, celebrates World War II serviceman and loyal restaurant patron, Sigmond Alman of Oakton, Sunday at the chain’s Chantilly restaurant. The 93-year-old veteran was a radar operator for the U.S. Navy aboard the light aircraft carrier USS Monterey — the same ship to which an officer named Gerald R. Ford was assigned, long before he became the 38th president of the United States and commander in chief.
