Past Hero's Wishes
My name is SPC O'Donnell. I am currently deployed in Afghanistan. I have been here since November 2009 and should be heading home in Late October of this year. I have been a life long Notre Dame fan and have never seen them play in person...it's my wish to take my father to see the ND Irish play against Army in Yankee Stadium on Saturday 20 November. I have already purchased the air tickets to go, however I cannot find any tickets for the game. I have looked at the ticket outlets online and the prices are out of my range. I plan on going to the game with my Dad, also a lifelong Irish fan. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Thank You

Thank you so much! I have been a life long Notre Dame fan and you made it possible! I want a month after I got back from deployment. I went with my dad. It was the first football game played at Yankee stadium. It was a memory of a lifetime! Thank you and God bless!

I am currently on the tail end of my third deployment overseas, second time in Iraq with an Afghanistan inbetween them. My Company will be redeploying at the beginning of Sept and my request is for 2 tickets to the Red River Shootout which is the annual OU vs UT game at the Cotton Bowl. This year it will be held on Oct 2 and will right at the start of my post deployment block leave. I would like to take my dad to the game, he is a Veitnam vet. I have never been able to attend this game in the past and Sooner football is a huge passion in my life. It would be a great event to be able to go to with my dad. If possible tickets on the an OU section would be greatly appreciated. A little bit about my unit that kind of makes this deployment unique. I am currently with C Co 1-3 IN (The Old Guard). We are better known by our Soldiers who keep constant watch over the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington and for conducting military funerals in Arlington National Cemetery. This is the first combat deployment that an element from our unit has been on since the Veitnam War. Two Companies have been sent to Africa in the past few years but none to an active combat zone that is until us. Once we deploy back to Ft Myer we will reset and continue with our ceremonial duties in Arlington National Cemetery and around the National Capitol Region. It is a huge honor and humbling experience to be part of this unit. Thanks for all you do for us. John

I just wanted to say thanks to the University of Oklahoma, the donor and the crew at VetTix. The Red River Shootout was a great experience and great game this past weekend. Thank you for assisting and making this happen for my father and myself. The Texas State Fair was an amazing atmosphere and the game was great. It was a pretty exciting finish to a great performance put on by the University of Oklahoma. I wish I could attend every single Red River Shootout for the rest of my life. That is how great it was and how much I am very thankful for everyone's participation in making it happen. Once again thank you from the bottom of my heart! RLTW.

I am hoping to be able to attend a Cubs game with my family. It is pretty expensive to take a family to a MLB game. I have been to several and usually can only afford two tickets. I would like to be able to take my entire family to a game. We all love the Cubs and it would be awesome if we all could go at the same time. I am returning to the United States at the end of July and would like to attend a Cubs game before the kids return to school. Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Id like to thank everyone involved in fulfilling my wish. We were ablt to attend the Chicago Cubs game against the Atlanta Braves on August 22nd. My family and I were treated very well while at Wrigley Field. We were treated to onfield passes during Cubs batting practice and great seats a couple sections back from home plate. Got a couple autographs and some great pictures of the players. Thanks to Dwayne and Eddie at Veteran Tickets Foundation for all their help in making this day become a reality. Thanks to the Chicago Cubs and Jamie King with the Wrigley Field Ambassadors. She made sure we were taken care of and even came back during the game to see if we were doing ok. Thanks to all who donate money, time and tickets to make these wishes come true for Veterans and their families. We certainly had a great time and it will be a day we wont forget. Getting to go onto the field during batting practice is something not many get to do. The Cubs went "all-out" with taking care of us. Thanks again. Go Cubs!!

My husband will be coming home on R&R on Aug 18th- Sept 1. We desperately need a "date night." We didn't get to spend much quality time with one another before he left because of the move back to NJ and many sleep deprived nights up with our newborn. I would love to surprise him by staying overnight in Atlantic City for dinner and a Crosby Stills & Nash concert. I know he needs the break and you would make one very special hero happy...and wife :)!

Hi my name is Jason I am currently on my second deployment and deployed to Afghanistan with the Airborne CAV stationed out of Germany. When I deployed I was told that I would not be getting mid tour leave but I recently found out I will be getting leave in early/ mid August. I am extremely excited about leave because my wife flew back state side to Illinois in April and just gave birth to my first daughter two weeks ago. She is currently staying with family along with our 10yr old son. I would love to take my recently enlarger family to Disney or Wisconsin Dells Kalahari indoor / outdoor water park resort for leave. This would not only be a wonderful surprise for our ten year old son but it would be a wonderful way for our family to re-bond without all the extra family around since we do not have our own place state side. This would also be extremely exciting for my family because we still have 2 years left to serve in Germany and it is very hard for us to come home for visits or vacations. Right now till the end of July I can get hero tickets to Disney World for $99.00 each plus tax, I would need 3 tickets. After July 31st the four day pass for 3 would be $85.00 a day per person $1020.00. Or I can get passes to Kalahari indoor / outdoor water park resort for 2 days for my whole family for $399.90 I know that this is a lot to ask for but it would mean the world to my family and me. I missed so much of of the pregnancy and my daughters birth that being able to have this time and amazing experience with my family would mean everything to us. Thanks for reading my wish.

My family are really big nascar fans and he comes home soon from his tour in Iraq and it would be pretty cool to have something to do with him this summer. Ive been looking for garage passes for him for several weeks as he always wanted that exprience but tickets at Indy would be awesome.

I'm currently serving at an undisclosed location in the Middle East. I got engaged to my girlfriend of 3 years in February of this year. We have set a date for July 17th while I'm home on mid-tour leave. For our first date 3 years ago I took her to see the Atlanta Braves play the Milwaukee Brewers. It so happens that the same two teams are playing on the night that would be our bachelor/bachelorett party night July 15, 2010. We've made plans to go to the game for said celebration, however there are 8 people in our wedding party and getting good seats for that many people is impossible on my budget (did i mention, her parents don't approve, so I'm paying for the whole wedding.) I know its a long shot, but one of the few things that we hold on to over here are the ones we love, and following our favorite sports teams in the news. I know the Braves aren't rocking anybody's world this year, but I would still love to see them play. I know this is a long shot, but its the only shot I've got. Thanks.
