EXCELSIOR SPRINGS, Mo. — A Vietnam veteran will begin the second leg of a cross-country ride 20 years after the first.
Jesse Morton will be riding a mule drawn wagon to honor his friends and fellow veterans struggling with PTSD. It’s all part of a pact he made with his buddies in Vietnam. They agreed that if one of them did not make it home, the other would travel across the country like this.
In the video player above, FOX4’s Marcus Officer speaks with the veteran from the wagon.
