The Star Spangled Salute is presented by
Today’s Star Spangled Salute honors 70-year-old Vietnam Veteran Rick Olsen. Rick suffered a stroke years ago that caused him to lose his sight. Rather than let it defeat him, Rick did one of the most unlikely things, he became a photographer. Rick said he went scuba diving with a friend with an underwater camera and started taking pictures of what people said they were seeing, and he’s never turned back. He’s been doing it for over 2 decades now, sometimes walking 100 miles per week and taking pictures along the way and this year he entered his first photography competition. Thank you for the inspiration Rick and THANK YOU for your service.
