"Big blue and red letters scrawled across the toe of a tan Army boot capture the sentiment of a proud - and heartbroken - family.

"Our Hero!," it reads. "Till we meet again!"

Hanging from the boot laces is a tag with a picture of Sgt. 1st Class Keith Callahan, smiling as he stands in his green Army uniform...."

"...The boots have been packed in storage tubs, which will be taken to Hedrick Stadium field by trucks and unloaded.

Volunteers will place the boots around the stadium, Watson said. Once the boots are laid out, volunteers will attach a personalized tag with the portrait of a fallen soldier, his or her unit and date of death..."

Should be something to see.
