This past week in Huntsville, Alabama, has been "Hero's Week" in honor of our Wounded Warriors
People gathered all day at the Huntsville International Airport to welcome our Wounded Warriors to Huntsville for a week of events honoring them and their service to our country. The sacrifices they and their families made for us.
Veterans from Vet's Motorcycle Clubs all wearing vests with their campaign buttons and ribbons!
See them, cheer them, thank them all in the parade!
Look at this little guy who came out to welcome them!
