Tommy Franks, retired four-star Army general who led the entire military forces that entered Iraq in 2003 and beyond, points to veterans in uniform as he speaks to the crowd gathered at the “Salute to Service” for veterans, military personnel, service individuals, their families and guests in Hobart, Okla. Saturday morning. The event took place at the General Tommy Franks Leadership Institute and Museum which will open formally in May. Franks ended his speech with “It’s time to recognize those who served, raise our heads up and not be ashamed that we are the land of the free, home of the brave, and if you don’t believe that, just try to take it away from us.” At right are Trapper Heglin, museum coordinator, and Hobart Mayor Tom Talley.
