It’s time for this week’s Hometown Hero, brought to you by Keller Chevrolet and Batavia Downs Gaming.  She is originally from Attica, NY.  This week’s Hometown Hero is US Army Specialist Angela Gilhooly!

In Angela’s nomination, it said Angela is an incredibly strong, determined and motivated young lady. She is currently deployed to Afghanistan and just received "Soldier of the Month" award. She has also received 2 other Army Excellence Awards during her deployment. She was currently chosen for a meet and greet with Craig Morgan while he was touring in Afghanistan for our soldiers where she was shown in Rolling Stones Magazine pictured with him. She makes her family proud everyday and they cannot wait for her to return home.

We hope she comes home soon too.  We would love to tell her thank you for all that she does to keep our country safe and we are proud to call her this week’s Hometown Hero!

If you would like to nominate someone who is currently serving our country or has served in the past, click the button at WYRK.com. We will choose a new Hometown Hero each Friday. If their name is chosen, we will not only feature them on WYRK.com, but we’ll be sure to thank them for their service on the air and dedicate the first song on Noon Tunes to them.

Once again, thank you to US Army Specialist Angela Gilhooly, our Hometown Hero of the week!
