317th Airlift Wing vice commander Steven Wicks says that as an active duty service member, he is grateful for those who have served before him, “It's because I stand on the shoulders of giants that I'm able to do what I do, and it's obvious that those who came before did great things because again, we have such great support. And that comes from a constant lineage and heritage of good service.”
Wicks joined other active duty military members and veterans as well as the community to see the marching bands, floats, and high-waving American flags featured in Saturday’s Parade. Veteran’s Day will be observed nationally on November 11th.
