Patriot That Loves the Patriots |
| My wish is for New England Patriots tickets for a Sunday or Monday game. Whether it's the current season or the following season. My wife, being a veteran and a Patriots fan as well, would be ecstatic to be able to attend a game. Since my injury the thing thing that heals me the most is her happiness. This would do that more than most anything else. I married into a New England Patriots family which makes me a fan by proxy. My wife, who is also a veteran (OIF) experienced as much emotional trauma as I did physical trauma when I was injured during OEF. This would be more for her than me but her happiness is what continues to heal my wounds.
Thank you |
Thank You Message From Hero:
Me, my wife and her parents attended the Redskins vs. Patriots game yesterday (12/11/2011) at FedEx Field yesterday afternoon. It was an absolutely amazing day. The seats were perfect. The parking was perfect. The food was delicious. And the Patriots won!!
I can't say thank you enough for such a great gift.
We were having so much fun we didn't have time to take pictures...

Dallas Cowboys Game |
| My husband, Major Kevin Conley, was with the DE National Guard and deployed to Bamain, Afghanistan, with the Embedded Training Team. He left DE Jan 8, 2010. While in Afghanistan, he helped build schools and mentor the government. He returned injured to Indiana on Dec 5, 2010, and arrived in Ft. Meade/Walter Reed on Dec 15, 2010. He was able to see our two children and myself on weekends, but couldn't return home until April 2011. He is home while seeking medical care and scheduling his surgeries. His first back surgery was 8/11/11, and we're still hoping the feeling will return in his leg. Kevin is currently on medical hold, and will remain on Active Duty until his surgeries and recoveries are complete. We were given about an 18 months. Since my husband hasn't "returned" from Active Duty, he was not included in a Welcome Home ceremony.
My husband is a huge Dallas Cowboys fan. He has always wanted to go to Texas to watch a Thanksgiving game. I'd love to see his wish come true. Tickets to the Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Game would be a great welcome home!

Dallas Cowboys game Christmas Eve |
| As a born Texan (my father was in the Air Force, so we didn't spend a lot of time there)I have always been a rabid Dallas Cowboys fan through thick and thin, the thick times obviously being their Super Bowl wins in the 90s and the thin times being any time they don't make the playoffs. I have been deployed four times, for a total of about 40 months, I expect to be home sometime in late November, early December from the most recent tour in Iraq. I would love to take my wife and two boys, ages 7 and 4 to a Cowboys game, it would be a great bonding event for us as we all love sports. My wife and boys have been a great support to me as we have dealt with many difficult situations that not only has my units gone through, but also the difficulties that being gone from your family bring, each time in new locations, with new people. I think this would be a great way to express gratitude to the people who ache and suffer every step of the way along with their soldier. I would love to attend the December 11 game against the NY Giants at Cowboys Stadium as I am currently stationed at Ft Hood. We would forever be greatful if you could make this dream come true. |
Thank You Message From Hero:
 We had the most amazing time ever at the Cowboys-Eagles game on Christmas even though the Cowboys ended up on the losing end. It was truly awesome to be treated like royalty in a Silver Suite at Cowboys stadium. I was able to bring along 7 other veterans and rabid Cowboys fans as well. A big thanks to the donors and their generosity!!

Tennessee Titans v. Jacksonville Jaguars |
| I am returning from Deployment to Iraq, going home to Nashville, TN for Christmas to visit my wife and my twin sons. I wish to attend the Tennessee Titans vs Jacksonville Jaguars game on the 24th of December, 2011, and am unable to afford tickets due to child support payments.

Once again Thank You for granting this wish.

Round of golf at Torrey Pines |
| I will be in San Diego on vacation with my family after my deployment. I wish to play a round of golf at Torrey Pines (South course). If I would have known about this organization before, I made my vacation plans in Monterey, I've always wanted to play Pebble Beach, but Torrey is on that wish list too. |

Severely Wounded Veteran
|
Green Bay Packers vs Raiders |
| My name is Zachary Durham and I am 20 years old. I am a Specialist in the US Army. On April 23rd, 2011 I was wounded in Afghanistan from a gunshot wound to the chest. My injury has left me with partial paralysis in my dominant arm (left). I now reside at home in Ames, Iowa attending Iowa State University and medical appointments.
It has always been my dream since I was young to see the Green Bay Packers play. Recently I found tickets through Veterans Advantage. Unfortunately, due to tickets being hard to find, price inflation affects the prices tremendously. I am hoping to get two tickets, for myself and one companion, to attend the game at Lambeau the weekend before Thankksgiving, as that works best for my school schedule. |
