Members of the community came out to the Independence Village of Frankenmuth for the Warrior Appreciation Rally.
The event, now in its 6th year, honors military, police, EMS, and firefighters with free food, games, and helpful resources.
Even though Assistant Frankenmuth Fire Chief Phillip Haubenstricker was an honoree, he was there to honor those who have served our country.
“Sit back and just take one minute just to say thanks for all the sacrifices and the abilities and the comforts we have because people make sacrifices, so we need to do that,” Haubenstricker said.
Veterans from all walks of life have made tremendous sacrifices, like Howard Myers who lost his eyesight while serving in Vietnam.
