Each month the local chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution (SAR) recognizes and honors a local Cullman Wounded Warrior with a certificate and a coin. Here on the right, Cullman SAR President Ken Brown is awarding the SAR Wounded Warrior Award to Cullman Dr. Tom Barnes, who, while serving in the U.S. Army in Vietnam as an airborne artillery spotter, was shot down by enemy fire and wounded and later received a Purple Heart.
The SAR is a patriotic organization that strives to honor all those patriots who step forward to serve our nation, and we were proud to extend this recognition to Tom Barnes.
