PUEBLO, COLO. (AP) -- A downtown Pueblo footbridge honoring military veterans will be dedicated on Veterans Day.

The bridge in the Historic Arkansas Riverwalk will have the names of more than 5,000 Pueblo veterans.

The Pueblo Chieftain reports the event will include two fly-overs, one by Doss Aviation Inc. of Pueblo, which conducts initial flight training for the Air Force, and one by the Colorado National Guard.

Among the speakers are Drew Dix, who received the Medal of Honor for his actions as an Army staff sergeant in the Vietnam War.
