COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KOAA) — Many local military service members received special recognition on Wednesday at the U.S. Senior Open at The Broadmoor.

Despite weather delays, attendees say the event was worth attending to meet other service members.

"It was great seeing everybody, catching up on different (military) stories," said Doug Corrion, a Navy and Army veteran.

The day features several events, including the Wounded Warrior Challenge. It's a four-hole match for selected veterans to go against a U.S. Senior Open competitor.

However, those scheduled events were delayed by heavy rain and severe thunderstorms on Wednesday afternoon.

"The biggest thing for us... just meeting other people," said Mike Dillman, an Army veteran. "The whole event here is really outstanding."
