Univeristy of Texas to honor American troops at Longhorns vs Texas Tech football game November 5, 2011

University of Texas Longhorns football troops
During the Longhorns football game tomorrow against Texas Tech at Darrell K. Royal-Memorial Stadium, the Unviersity of Texas will salute American troops both past and present. In honor of Veteran's Recognition Day, the Veterans Committee will recognize three members of the "Longhorn Family;" Lieutenant John C. Morgan, Colenel Neel E. Kearby and Lieutenant Russell Steindam, all of whom have earned the Congressional Medal of Honor.

In what is sure to be quite the entrance, the Army's 82nd Airborne All-American Free Fall Demonstration team will commence the pre-game ceremonies as four jumpers will skydive onto the field to present the USA flag, Texas flag, UT flag and the game ball!

What a great way to honor the troops that serve for us every day! Thank you to the troops for all you do!
