The Honoring the Sacrifice Foundation invites the public to attend the 2nd Annual American Heroes Dinner to be held on June 5.  The featured speaker will be LTG (Ret.) William G. "Jerry"  Boykin.

LTG Boykin was one of the elite warriors chosen in 1978 to make up the first unit in America's deadly Delta Force. He then became commander of the unit, and later still, commander of all U.S. Army Special Forces.

Also in attendance will be wounded warrior Taylor Morris, who will be sharing his story. Taylor Morris (Retired, Navy, EOD) is one of only five quadruple amputees from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to survive his injuries.
