Alabama Celebrates National Armed Forces Day

The event will be held at the Airport beginning at 10 a.m. and ending at 2 p.m.

They are asking that members of the Armed Forces, Veteran’s and their families come out and enjoy this free celebration.

Food vendors will be there but military members and their families (who show ID) will be treated to a free lunch grilled out by Wal-mart team members.

You can also take part in a free helicopter ride given by the Army heritage Foundation.

All guests are asked to enter through the south gate (closest to Glenn Ave/ Airport Motors).

They ask that you don’t bring any pets to this event because the runways will be active.
