2016 DoD Warrior Games

Here is a true sporting event the 2016 Warrior Games I want to make everyone aware of a great opportunity to attend and support the 2016 Department of Defense Warrior Games to be held at the United States Military Academy – West Point NY from June 15-21, 2016. All events are free and open to the public

The 2016 Warrior Games is an adaptive sports competition for wounded, ill and injured service members and veterans. Approximately 250 athletes will participate in eight sporting events, representing teams from the Army, Marine Corps, Navy/Coast Guard, Air Force, U.S. Special Operations Command and the United Kingdom (U.K.) Armed Forces. These games highlight the resiliency and warrior spirit of service members, veterans and their families and caregivers. Adaptive sports and athletic reconditioning activities play a fundamental role in the successful recovery and reintegration of our service members and veterans.

I would like to encourage everyone to attend this event and support our wounded, ill and injured Men and Women of our Armed Forces. Watch and be a part of such a great experience as you witness true sportsmanship – It is so important to show our support to these men and women who have given up so much to defend our way have life. Hope to see you there - For more details about these games go to: http://warriorgames.dodlive.mil/
