2009 Texan of the Year

The Dallas Morning News has awarded a Texan of the Year title for what its readers nominate as the most important person/group/entity that can be considered 'Texan' for the previous year.

This year's winner, as announced in today's edition; 'The Heroes of Ft. Hood'.

In addition to honoring those who fell during November's terror attack on the base, it recognizes the thousands of soldiers, civilians, and family members who call the central Texas base home.

A very nice tribute. Especially so, since Outlaw13, native born Texan and long time Ft. Hood family member, is among those honored.

Here's some more info, well worth the read:
