MOLINE, Illinois- Dozens of veterans are being honored on the ice at the TaxSlayer just in time for veterans day on Sunday.

November 9 through 11, the Quad City Storm will honor active and retired military members the entire Veterans Day weekend starting by inviting the public to write the names of those who have served on the ice. These will be sealed with water to stay on the ice during the games that weekend.

Friday, November 9,  special camo jerseys sponsored by VFW Post 1303, will be worn as warm-up jerseys throughout the season, then the Storm will be auctioning off the jerseys on April 5, 2019.
