Veterans honored in the Home of the Heroes

Hundreds of people came out to Pueblo’s Historic Federal Building for the unveiling of a display of local veterans.

The collection of portraits is called the “Call For Veterans.”

Hundreds of pictures are all over the walls of the building in honor of local heroes from several wars.

This was organized by the Pueblo Veterans Ritual Team and The Pueblo Veterans Council.

Salvadore Torres is one of the organizers. He said this is one way to show off Pueblo’s veterans.

“Veterans don’t like to brag a lot and what these pictures reflect are families doing the bragging, it’s emotional and I can tell you as with the other people is you see tears come to their eyes, there’s no words for it.” he said.

The display will be up until Veteran’s Day.
