The 34th National Veterans Wheelchair Games are being held in Philadelphia from August 12-17 in the Convention Center, mainly.

Last night I photographed mostly Red Cross volunteers helping out at the Opening Ceremonies. There are nearly 700 wheelchair veterans participating this year. This was a particularly poignant moment in the Wheelchair Parade.
