Veteran Frank Flores reflects on Veterans Day

November 11, 2008 | Kathryn Mobley

In 1968, Frank Flores enlisted into the Army at the age of 18. A year later, he was shipped out to Vietnam.

After he recovered from a near fatal injury in Vietnam, the United States Army awarded Frank Flores a Purple Heart.

Today, he's the commander of VFW Post 1134 in Winston-Salem.

On this Veterans Day, Frank shares some difficult memories with WFDD's Kathryn Mobley.
