FT. SAM HOUSTON, Texas (CNN/KABB) - Some soldiers at Fort Sam Houston near San Antonio got a visit from a group of four-legged celebrities.

The Budweiser Clydesdales came out to ride around three wounded warriors and their families for a bit.

The animals were brought out to boost morale and give the wounded soldiers something to smile about while on the mend.

The Clydesdales are actually on tour. They'll be in the San Antonio area until this weekend.

The animals are staying at the Fort Sam Houston Equestrian Center.

After Christmas, they'll head to Orlando, Fla.
