Homecoming of a Redskins Fan

Homecoming of a Redskins Fan

My son Tony is leaving IRAQ today and after a week in Kuiet[sp?] will be on his way home to here in Virginia. YEAH!!!!

I spoke with him during the Redskins game when he called here as he was following the game at nfl.com. You could here him and his buddies scream and raise hell when we scored. He has a Portis jersey ordered and on the way here soon too.

When he gets here I'll have a Redskins Warpath Round up and any and all of you are invited to come over, watch the game and meet Tony [Honey I just invited 2000+ folks for BBQ!]

I am VERY proud of my son for his efforts for his Country.

I think I am making this post because all of a sudden I am very scared for him. I just want him home and safe and back with his mother. If you pray...please pray for his safe return. If you don't pray then just wish him well in yer heart and head.

Hail to the Redskins!
Hail to our American Troops Everywhere!
Hail to you Redskins Fans
Hail with dalASS!

peace
mike

Excellent! So is he done with his commitment or is he heading off to his base for more time?

He is to be stationed near us here in Northern Virginia at Ft. Belvoir and already has his Unit and Commander. He get's about 2 months off before having to report which will be nice. We'll get him to a game somehow this year too!

THANK YOU for your kind words of support.

If funds are a problem I'm willing to chip in on a ticket for him and one of his buddies (a skins fan of course) which he is serving with to go to a game. These guys have given alot to this country and I would think we could get them to a game this year. Anyone have any suggestions. Maybe someone could find some tickets to the Dallas game and we could start a thread to raise money for the game and a little extra for spending cash.

I'm in. PM me any details.

Lord, deliver Tony safe and sound, and give him traveling mercies! As a Viet Nam Vet, Lord, I salute, (Pause) (Salute) and give thanks to those still serving, and for those who have fulfilled their commitments, and are able to return to their families. Lord, for those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom, I pray their famlies would be free from pain and suffering, realizing that their loved ones are in your ever-lasting arms! I thank you for our One Nation, Under you, Oh Lord! All in due respect to you Jesus, who gave the ultimate sacrifice for us! Amen!

Sammy Baugh Fan · 10-25-2005, 01:06 PM

Tony, thank you for your self-sacrifice and service to our country. Welcome home and continue to 'give em steel' soldier.

And a special thanks to all the family members who support and love those folks who put themselves in harms way.
