(Reuters) - Three young men who disarmed a suspected Islamist militant on a high-speed train in France will be honoured with a parade in their hometown in California next week, officials said, as the last of the trio returned to the United States on Thursday.
The three friends, Anthony Sadler, 22, Spencer Stone, a 23-year-old U.S. airman, and Alek Skarlatos, 22, a National Guardsman, charged the gunman on a train headed to Paris from Amsterdam on Aug. 21, helping to wrestle away a pistol and an AK-47 assault rifle.
