Very Heartwarming Event

[Whitehorse]

Today a young soldier, Sgt. Kevin Downs, came home to Middle Tennessee from the hospital today. He was severely, permanentlyinjured fighting for our freedom in Iraq. From the Kingston Springs Exit on through to Hwy. 70, people were lined up to welcome him home. Many US flags were being waved - none desecrated! It was great to see so many people - us regular, "normal" flyover country folk, paying tribute to this young man who is not much older than my son. This made me even more grateful to live in this Country & this area!

Glad to hear that he was given the respect and love he has earned.

Let's all hope that this is the beginning of an ongoing tradition .
