MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- A group of veteran bikers helped pull off a birthday celebration for a fellow brother-in-arms.
Gene is a WWII veteran who served in the Pacific.
Although he's never rode a motorcycle, he says he loves to hear the sound of the bikes.
So for his 98th celebration, the bikers pulled by his house in St. Francis, all while revving their engines for the whole neighborhood to enjoy.
