Chris Allison (WRDW-TV)AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- The local motorcycle community is giving back to a man who gave so much.
An Army veteran who then went into the Coast Guard is visiting Augusta, but not because he wants to. Now, a group of riders are making him feel at home.
He cannot move, but Chris Allison's story will move you.
"He has two Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star," explained his wife, Sharon Allison. "He was a rescue swimmer, he saved many lives."
He cannot talk, so his wife will talk for him.
"We're practically newlyweds. We were married, it was two months," she said. "Then was out on his motorcycle one day and a woman hit him."
A month or so after the accident in Douglasville, he ended up at the Augusta VA hours from home.
Sharon has been the only one by his side since he came here until Thursday night.
"I ride with the Christian Motorcycle Association," said David Kiser. "It's one of the things God has called us to do."
