FORT HUACHUCA — Every veteran has a legacy link that connects soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines back to the days when the United States was fighting for its independence, Sierra Vista Councilman Tom Reardon said.
“I think veterans are a special breed,” the retired Army chief warrant officer said.
Speaking at the annual Veterans Appreciation Luncheon hosted by the Greater Sierra Vista Area Chamber of Commerce’s Military Affairs Committee, Reardon said every veteran “has a legacy link that goes all the way back to Lexington in 1775.”
