BRIGHTON - A wounded Iraq war veteran now knows a bit more about the kindness of strangers after coming home Tuesday to a street filled with a lot of strangers.
Aaron Bugg came back from a fishing trip to Florida on Tuesday and while he was there, a secret plan went into effect. A big group of Denver-area businesses and volunteers conspired with a plan to show the veteran appreciation for his service.
Just after he landed at Denver International Airport, he came home to a completely redone home.
The surprise renovation was done as part of a television show that will air in February on the NBC Sports Network. The program is called the Ultimate Fishing Experience. It sends wounded vets on fishing excursions and adds a little surprise in the end.
The Patriot Guard Riders helped escort Bugg from DIA to his house. The injury he has made it difficult for him to walk on carpet, which is part of the reason for the renovation.
