Alabama NewsCenter – Lettermen of the USA honors Eli Gold, raises money to help veterans’ families

By Solomon Crenshaw Jr.

Eli Gold has called the action of many gridiron battles involving the Alabama Crimson Tide, but he never served on the battlefield as a member of the military.

The voice of Alabama football said this past Friday night that he has the highest respect for the men and women who fight for their country.

“You can never do enough for the military, for folks who have laid down their lives for us so that we can enjoy the freedoms that we enjoy today,” he said during the Lettermen of the USA One Yard at a Time Gala at The Club in Birmingham. “There’s nothing you can do that would satisfy what you need to do, because these people are magnificent.”
