Dozens gather at USS Alabama as Carry The Load relay heads for Biloxi

May 22, 2025

WALA-TV

MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) – Dozens gathered at USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park to continue the walk along the Gulf Coast and honor the sacrifices of our nation’s heroes during the Carry the Load relay.

The national movement stops in cities across the country, paying tribute to fallen military members, first responders, and their families.

Carry the Load works to preserve the meaning of Memorial Day. The walk began in West Point, N.Y., and they’ve put in their steps, participating in several walks of remembrance throughout the country.

Paul Willamore with Veteran Air didn’t hesitate to join the walk as a sponsor and a member of the community.

He says his business is veteran-run and committed to supporting those who serve.

“I’m a Marine Corps veteran and proud of it. Had no idea I was going to be standing up here today, but here we go. Carry the Load means, to me, everybody’s carrying someone — whether it’s a first responder, military veteran… you always got somebody. My father. Everybody’s got somebody that they hold close and dear to them that you carry with you every day,” Willamore said.

Carry the Load continues its journey through Biloxi today as it heads toward Dallas, where the national relay will conclude on Memorial Day.
