On Saturday June 12th Operation Homefront, We Do Care and Rollin Thunder welcomed home Army Sgt. Nick Bender who was wounded in Afghanistan. The streets were lined with yellow ribbons as a cheerful and grateful crowd lined the route with flags. A big welcome home party at Wool Street Grill and Sports Bar topped off the activities as June 12th was declared Sgt. Nick Bender Day in Barrington, Illinois.
God Bless The Troops was honored to be part of the celebration and we partnered with Fund-A-Frame supporter Kim Pesavento in honoring our Local Hero with a framed Defender print. Thank you for your generosity Kim!
Welcome home Nick - we will be praying for a speedy recovery. Thank you for your bravery and service!
