Veterans Day
Among the day’s greatest highlights was the
presentation of a brand new home to veteran
and guest of honor, Sergeant Christopher Powell.
As a special ops ranger, Sgt. Powell sustained
multiple injuries during a 2011 raid in Afghanistan.
He has since gone on to become an athlete and
motivational speaker, and is preparing to pursue
a graduate degree in psychology at the University
of Texas. “I still can’t describe it,” said the 39-year-
old veteran, who insisted that it was still a day to
congratulate
all
veterans.
