Injured Marine Pics

5/13/05 – Wounded Marine receives a purple heart.

Thank you so much for carrying the red rubber band bracelets that state “U.S. Marines” on them. My son and son in law are Marines. I bought enough of the braclets for my nephew class at a Christian school. I know that the more prayers going up for my boy in Iraq the better. My nephew handed out the braclets to his classmates and they all said thank you. Then he pulled out a picture of my son in full combat gear. WOW! Were they impressed. They now wear their braclets proudly and our Marines have twenty more prayers going up for them. read more

Marine and Kitten

I don’t know if you are still looking for pictures for a calendar, but this picture of my son who is a Lt., to become Captain upon his return from his third deployment says it all. This man is a beloved leader to his men, a tough but caring boss, he earned the Navy & Marine Corps medal for combat valor on his second tour. The title of this pic is “What I do while the platoon chases insurgents”. I just love it because it shows a tough marine, with a tiny kitten in his gloved hands. All that equipment gently holding the small animal. Hope you enjoy it. read more

Gentlemen,
I figured a few of you tankers would appreciate some pictures of Fallujah from Operation Phantom Fury seen through the tanker’s perspective. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
