ESPN plans to honor veterans with a week of programming starting Nov. 4 called “America’s Heroes: A Salute to Our Veterans,” culminating in special “SportsCenter” programs from West Point on Veterans Day, Nov. 11, according to an ESPN release.

Segments will include:

“Warrior Adventure Quest,” an extreme sports-driven program that helps soldiers build spirit and deal with combat-related stress on the Spanish-language ESPN Deportes.

Danielle Green-Byrd, former Notre Dame basketball player injured in Iraq, on “SportsCenter.”
What if baseball legends such as Ted Williams, a former Marine Corps pilot, never went to war? On “SportsCenter.”

President Barack Obama salutes troops and veterans with a taped message, along with sports icons such as the NBA’s LeBron James and Kobe Bryant, the NFL’s Tom Brady and cycling star Lance Armstrong.
