(Portland, OR)  --  Volunteers in Portland are helping a veteran get around easier.  More than a dozen people are helping to build a ramp on the Northeast Portland home of 89-year-old vet Bill Palmer.  Palmer says he has been confined to his house and front porch because he doesn't have functional stairs to his backyard.  Non-profit, "Catalyst NW" is building the ramp free of charge and Home Depot is donating the materials.
