I'm changing things up here for this post. I've run a couple "patriotic" feel posts before, but this one is different. This one is personal. This is something I am sharing with you all because I'm urging you to pray for my friend Nick. He was recently injured in Afghanistan after stepping on an IED in the ground. I can assure you he's a man of honor, faith and integrity. He's the kind of guy fathers want their sons to become, mothers want their daughters to marry, Soldiers want to have as an officer, and other men envy because of how he's developed himself morally, mentally and physically. Nick is an Army Ranger and I know his plans after that included becoming a combat surgeon for the Army. He is a 2010 graduate of West Point. I'm telling you, he's an American hero and he needs your prayers to stay alive.
Please.
Mandi and Dan, thank you for linking to my blog and for all you've done for our country. I am so sorry for what has happened to your dear friend, who sounds like an amazing person. My thoughts and prayers are with this hero, his wonderful family, and good friends like you.

Tom,
ReplyDeleteAnytime. I appreciate the fact that you're covering Nick's story. It's nice to see people outside of the military family noticing it, caring, and praying. We'll continue to put your links up on 2nd Lt. Vogt as you update them if you don't mind.
Best wishes,
Dan
