Stephen Weatherly and Jalyn Holmes exercise with troops at Camp Ripley

We often point out when the Minnesota Vikings get involved with the community, and this Veterans Day weekend the team’s official website brought us a story about a couple of the Vikings’ defensive linemen getting an opportunity to do some work with some local military members.

This past July, just before the start of Training Camp, Stephen Weatherly and Jalyn Holmes got a chance to spend some time with the 151st Field Artillery Battalion, which is part of the Minnesota Army National Guard Unit at Camp Ripley. Camp Ripley is about 100 miles northwest of Minneapolis, near Little Falls.
