Twelve members of the Wolfpack football team out of North Carolina State University, Raleigh, N.C., Tom O’Brien, the head coach, and several Wolfpack staff members ate dinner with the Marines of Wounded Warrior Battalion-East, Wounded Warrior Regiment, Manpower and Reserve Affairs, here April 7.

At the beginning of the event, Capt. Ray Baronie, the battalion’s executive officer, gave a speech thanking the football players for their visit.

“We appreciate athletes like you coming down here,” Baronie said. “You guys are all heroes in our book.”

The Marines shook hands with the athletes and spoke to them about their experiences in the Marine Corps.
