One of Norman’s greatest lifetime honors was to represent and advise victims of the Ft. Hood terrorist shooting. He was involved in persuading the United States government to award the victims Purple Heart Medals. In appreciation for Norman’s efforts and assistance, these soldiers bestowed upon Norman a United States Flag that they flew over their base in Afghanistan. Norman proudly displays it in his office. “This Flag motivates me each and every day to never stop fighting for justice just like our service members do daily for you and me,” Norman states.
