Community Pours Out Support for Soldiers at Wine Tasting

Posted: Updated:

The wine flowed freely today for those who fight to keep us free.

The Vineyard of Florence invited Fort Hood soldiers to a special appreciation day.

They enjoyed free wine, music and food.

It was all to give them a chance to relax and be with their families this Presidents Day.

And soldiers say the show of support was much needed and right on target.

"When we're working, we're working hard, and we're sometimes out of the country for an entire year, so getting rest and relaxation definitely keeps the morale high," said 1LT Danny Campbell.

PFC Landon Wiggs said it was nice, "Just to kind of de-stress and get away from the deployed environment, and just relax and spend time with that person that keeps you going through out the deployment."

About 60 soldiers raised their glasses for the event.
