Iraq War Veteran Troy Yocum is hiking 7,000 miles across America,     banging  his drum and sounding the call for $5 million to help military families in need.
 
We were honored to walk with Troy, the Hamptons and many more supporters
in memory of Captain Kimberly Hampton KIA 01-02-2004. We walked from Grove Rd to downtown Greenville.
 
We say "Thank You" to Troy for the awareness he is bringing to the people of the United States about the fallen and military families.
