Still others meet Veterans they served with stateside and overseas. Imadeapointto make the rounds, meeting Veterans from Puerto Rico, Hungary, and India. I met the few lady Veterans making a point to kiss their hands, a gesture they all thoughtspecial. Eachofthe Veterans had a different experience than the rest, all linked to the past, and each had earned their place in thatHallofHonor

On the second night,Kinga’shusbandtold her story about her injury and the nightmare of her slow recovery in a moving tribute,towhichtheentirety of those gathered at the communitycenterstoodand paidhomagetoher

There were also Soldiers and Marines who had lost or partially lost limbs. One Special Forces soldier that spoke was John Wayne Walding, a Green Beret who in a battle of Shok Valley in April 2008, losthisrightlegtoasniper Since his return John Wayne has raised a family,
