Past Hero's Wishes
Good Day, I pray that this humble request finds you well. I am asking for 4 Tickets with Fast passes and Park hopper to Universal Studios/Island of Adventure in Orlando, Florida. I am currently on a 6-month deployment to the Middle East that will require me to miss birthdays, dances, recitals, and karate events for my 2 girls and one boy, aged 12,11, and 9. I would like to be able to take them on this trip as an apology for missing these very important times in there lives while I'm serving the people of our great country, and use this to celebrate them and make memories to go along with the one's I will dearly miss. Thank you for taking the time to consider my request and have a blessed day.

Hello all, My name is Josh. I’ve served in the Air Force for 15 years, with the last five years working as a Program Manager. I am married to my best friend for almost 16 years and we were blessed with four wonderful kids, two girls and two boys, ranging in age from 14 to seven. I am currently deployed to the Middle East while my family serves back home to keep the ship afloat, so to speak. This deployment has asked a lot of the five of them over the past several months and I wanted to express my gratitude to them for going above and beyond, especially my wife, who is the embodiment of servant leadership while I’ve been away. My wife loves to share experiences as a family, and my kids love superhero’s and Harry Potter, so it would be great to treat the four kids to a 3 day Universal Studios - Orlando trip. After being away from each other for so long - missing birthdays, holidays, and first days of high school - sharing this moment together as a family would be a much appreciated time of refocus and reinvigoration. Thank you for your consideration and for all that you do in support of the veterans!

I am SGT Quinn, from Santa Fe, NM. Currently, I live in Hernandez, NM with my Wife, Rose. I play the drums in local groups between Santa Fe and Albuquerque. I enjoy making music, skateboarding and snowboarding. After enlisting in the Army in 2000, following BCT at Ft. Benning, GA & AIT at Ft. Sam Houston, TX, I was assigned to the unit I would train and fight with during 2003-2004 Operation Iraqi Freedom, HHB 3/16 FA 2BDE 4 ID (MECH). Here in the picture, I enjoy my graduation ceremony with my Cadre, SSG King. During my fifteen years of Active Duty, I feel grateful to those who were a part of my military career. Currently, I am attending the Leadership4Life Course at the Warrior Support Foundation in SATX. I intend to network with Veterans to share my love of life through music. For my wish, I am currently requesting Primus Tickets for their 2025 tour. The venue is located at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, CO on July 09, 2025. I am no hero, I leave that title for the ones that didn't come home.

Hi, I am Matt, a severely wounded combat veteran of OEF. I lost my right leg to an IED in 2010 in Afghanistan. Though my scars may not be fresh, the wounds have endured. I suffer from PTSD, TBI, and more complications due to the amputation. My wife and I are a family of 8, with 5 boys and 1 girl. A trip for all 8 of us is something we can only dream of. We know that a wish like this would be one that every member of our family would cherish for the rest of their lives. This is a humble request for the once in a lifetime chance for our family of 8 to go on a memorable trip together, create some core memories and enjoy the magic of Disney. For our children, aged 13 to 3, this would be a once in a lifetime experience.

Hello, my name is Nick. I have always wanted to go to a Jelly Roll concert. Specially before I have to get my 3rd back fusion. I have never been to a concert and think it would be awesome to see Jelly Roll. Of course it would be amazing to do a meet and greet but I know that is a little much to ask. So just being able to go to the concert would be awesome. I recently had to have my T4-7 fused in my back and 4 months before that I had to have my neck fused. I have a hard time doing much of anything now and I cannot walk very far. Whenever I leave my house I have to either use a walker for short distances and a scooter for anything other than my doctor appointments. Being an infantryman that was injured, now 35 years old and I can’t even do dishes anymore. I have a two year old and my wife has to take care of me and my son. I’m afraid that with the next surgery they want to do will make things even more difficult for me to get out of the house. Again if it is possible I would love to go see a Jelly Roll concert please.

Hello my name is Sean. I am a Sgt in the Army. I would love to take my wife to see Morgan Wallen in June. She is a huge fan and has been begging to go. Since 2021 I have been away from my family almost 24 months. I have missed countless birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays. I wanted to do something nice for my wife and I so we can get out and relax for a night. My wife has been extraordinary in keeping up with everything while Im gone. She works full time, goes to school full time, and takes care of my two boys Miles and Jack while I am away. She is my rock and I couldn’t do what I am able to do without her.

Hello, my name is Nick. I am a 17 year Army Soldier, husband, and father to two wonderful children. I am currently deployed to the Middle East. While this is my third deployment for the military, this is my first as a Dad. Back home, I live the somewhat cliche tale of a full-time Sheriff Deputy married to an elementary school teacher. My wife and I both have a passion for serving others, but this trip is far different with my wife taking on so much of the burden. By the time all is done and I am finally home, my family will have been apart for over 13 months out of a 16 month period. I would like nothing more than to take my 8 year old and 5 year old for a trip to Disney World to celebrate finally being a family again and to thank them for letting their Dad go help others while I could. Thank you for your consideration.

Thank You Message from the Hero:
Saying “Thank You” doesn’t quite cover it. Words just aren’t enough to express the profound gratitude that my family has for you making this an amazing trip to celebrate our family being back together again. Thank you all for the birthday comments and posts today! On our first day of the trip, after our travel, my daughter and I both celebrated our birthday at Magic Kingdom and it was amazing. Sharing a birthday with my daughter will always be better than any celebration I could ask for. Last year the Army had me away and it was the first time since she was born that we were apart on this day. This year we made up for it. I can honestly say that I had a brief moment of emotion as I stood there with her on my shoulders watching the fireworks around the castle on our actual birthday, appreciating that we were back together for our day. THANK YOU!!

Hello! My name is Maksym, I'm a SFC of the US army and I'm currently deployed to the Middle East. This year me and my wife should be celebrating our 10 years of marriage and even though I will be away I would love to take her along with my 2 daughters Mia and Melissa to the Disney World in Orlando once I return form the deployment in Dec 2024. Mia would be so happy to visit a Harry Potter attractions there and Melissa is all about princesses. I miss them so much and that would be the perfect opportunity to spend time with my wife and my beautiful girls all together after almost a year of separation.Thank you for helping the soldiers!

Thank You Message from the Hero:
I want to express my deepest gratitude for your generous contribution to my Hero Wish for a post-deployment trip to Disney World. Your support made it possible for me and my family to experience something truly special after a long and challenging time away. This trip wasn’t just a vacation—it was a much-needed chance to reconnect with my loved ones and create joyful memories that will stay with us forever. Watching my children light up with wonder at the Disney parades and share laughter with them on the rides helped me feel a sense of peace I hadn’t realized I was missing. For a few days, we were able to escape the stress, the separation, and the weight of service life, and just be a family again. None of that would have been possible without your selfless gift. Your support goes far beyond dollars—it brings healing, unity, and joy to military families like mine. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping make this dream come true.

My name is Bradley. I’ve served in the Army for 17 years now. I’ve been stationed in Germany and deployed on combat rotations twice. Just got back from a 10 month deployment to Poland in Oct of 24. I’m married to an amazing wife named Courtney and we have four children together. My family and I have been dreaming of the day to go to Disney World. Unfortunately we haven’t had the time or money so it’s been delayed again and again.

Hi, I'm Jeremy. I'm a psychologist in the Air Force and currently at Al Dhafra Air Base. Out here, I'm responsible for the psychological health of around 2000 Soldiers, Airmen, and Marines. I'm also fortunate to lead a team of expeditionary medics, who respond at all hours to medical emergencies. It's both a privilege and meaningful work. Even so, my family could use me at home, and when I finally get there, I'd like to make the reunion special. Your help will make it possible. It was nearly my worst fear. A month after deploying, my home flooded, and my family was displaced. I was and am unable to do much to support them, while the four of them live in a small hotel room awaiting the repairs to be done ...and me to come home. Right now, my children wouldn't even have books or teddy bears if I hadn't been able to send them after they were moved out of the house. I want to do something to surprise them -- something we couldn't do without *your* help. I'd like to get these kids to Disneyland.

Our trip to Disneyland was everything we could have hoped. It was a great chance to reconnect away from the daily mission. Disney holds a special place in our hearts, and we got to see our younger children light up in its magic for the first time. The Lightning Lane was especially appreciated, as we were able to enjoy more while waiting in line less. The picture you'll receive was taken with the PhotoPass benefit you afforded us. Thank you -- for making this opportunity available to us and other veterans.
