As a thank you for his sacrifice for our nation, AARP Wyoming honored Marshall as the Hero of The Game at The University of Wyoming’s football game against Utah State on Oct. 26. Marshall and his family were given free tickets to the game, parking passes, dinner, and Marshall himself was honored on the field during the game. This will be the first time Marshall ever attended a college football game, despite being a lifelong Cowboy fan.
