“This is a great way for us to honor our heroes,” said Hurley. “These are the men and women who put their lives on the line to protect the freedoms we enjoy and they deserve to be recognized for that commitment.”

Monetary prizes will be awarded to the three photos that receive the most on-line votes. First, second and third place winners will be announced on Veteran’s Day, November 11th.
