Chad Hall is a former second lieutenant of the U.S. Air Force, so it's no surprise the Eagles tweeted out a special message this Memorial Day.

"Memorial Day is one of the most important holidays of the year. It's for the fallen soldiers, the people who have made the ultimate sacrifice, who have fought for our freedom," the message begins.

Each year during training camp, one day is reserved for Military Appreciation Day. It's a really cool event, where military members line the practice field and then walk on the field to help break the huddle.
Then, the soldiers have a chance to meet players and get autographs on the field. Last year, Andy Reid signed autographs long after all the players had left the field. Hall also spends a ton of time on the field that day.
