Past Hero's Wishes
My name is TSgt Julian Andes. I have a family of 4, a dog and a cat. In my leisure time, I like to play basketball, run and weight lift. My wife and I are big fans of Daddy Yankee. We found out that he will be retiring from the music industry and will have his last world tour this year. We are currently stationed at Kadena Air Base Okinawa Japan and we will PCS back to the states in Aug 20, 2022. We wish to attend one of his last concerts at Amway Center Orlando Florida on Aug 26, 2022.

My name is SSgt Antonio Antunez. I retired from the USAF in 2020 after serving for 14 years, I was deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, on my 1st deployment to Iraq in 2007 and my squad was ambushed by small arms fire and I was wounded in an IED blast. I received a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star with Valor for the injuries that I sustained and for saving the life of our interpreter by rushing inside the burning HUMVEE and getting him out to safety while engaging the enemy under fire, I was awarded a BSM with Valor. I suffer from multiple medical issues due to my injuries during my five deployments in the service. I was medically retired in 2020 after I couldn't keep up with all of my injuries and decided to actually take care of myself, the USAF medical team told me that I couldn't keep hiding all my injuries and that it was time to heal and that has been and will be a long journey for me and my family. My daughter and my fiancé have supported me through all of my journey it's hard on them, but I can find love and support in them every time. After I was medically retired COVID hit and we have not been able to have a vacation, first was my Medical Evaluation Board and that was very stressful and then COVID made it even worse for my family and I. It would be an incredible experience to visit Disneyland with my family. I would like to request 3 five-day park hopper passes, to take my family this will start a journey to heal physical and mentally injuries and it would be a great to experience that with my family who has always been there for me, thank you.

My name is Joe Miller I joined the military in 2006 served six years in the Army as an infantryman. I joined the military because I was young and had a baby on the way and I had no idea how I was going to provide. I wasn't all too patriotic then, but uncle Sam and I are best friends now. We play golf on the weekends haha! I was wounded in combat and I'm a Purple Heart recipient I lost the hearing in my left ear and a lot of hearing in my right ear I took shrapnel on my legs. I'm grateful to still have my limbs and eyesight. Last Year I made a promise to my wife that I would get her and the kids tickets to see her favorite artist in the world Luke Combs in Columbus on July 23, 2022. I promised I would get her close to the stage and recently I looked at the prices and I had knots in my stomach. We've never been to a concert before and I didn't know how expensive it was. My wife has been my rock. She took care of me at my worst times and she took care of me at my best times. She is a mother to my kids and I couldn't have asked for a better person in my life. She works so hard at everything she does and never does anything for herself. Knowing I can't afford these tickets hurts my heart and I know that she'll completely understand but I would still love to surprise her. This would be the best dream come true for me, and her. The kids will love it too. I have never asked anyone for anything but if there's a chance I can help her wish come true (which is my wish) I'm going to try whatever I can. I'm a very humble person and very grateful. I'm grateful for what I have and I never complain about the things I don't have. Thank you for reading this.

On behalf of my family and myself, I would just like to thank everyone donor that helped make this trip possible for us. It truly was such a special experience for all of us. I don't think I have seen so many smiles, so many days in a row, than those three days we spent at the Disneyland parks. We enjoyed every second of it. Again, thank you to Vettix organization and to all of the donors who helped make this possible for us. Alex Minsky

My name is LS1 Jordan Creath. I am an active duty sailor who has served in the Navy for 15 years. I was on deployment in Kuwait/Iraq and got back in June. We had just moved to California last July and my wife and I wanted to take our kids to Disneyland around Halloween time. A few months after I checked into my command I was being shipped out for deployment. We didn't get to really explore California or do anything because I was always gone for training to prepare for deployment. I was never sure when I was going to come home because I just keep getting extended (thank goodness they didn't keep me out there until September like they wanted to.) It's been an emotional long journey and I just want to show my wife and kids that I appreciate them for all the sacrifices they have given over the past year and a half. I am requesting 4 Disneyland 3-Day Park Hopper tickets so I can take myself, my wife and our two children.

My name is SGT Dozier, Cristian. I am currently on back to back deployments. It has been extremely hard for my family. Missing important dates and holidays. I want to give my family a vacation they deserve. After supporting me through these two deployments and the effects it has taken on my life, from severe PTSD to several mental health problems, they have been there for me and never waivered. They're very deserving of this trip and I would love to provide that experience for them.

This wish meant the world to my family, it provided us the opportunity to catch up on so much time we lost during the deployment. We had a blast visiting the parks and created new memories that our family will cherish for a very long time. My daughter is a huge Harry Potter Fan and watching her enjoy the attractions and shows definitely made the end of her summer break the unforgettable. Thank you to the donors for your donations you have made a great impact on our lives for years to come. We are so grateful. Thank you again.

My wife and I had originally planned for a big wedding, but when COVID hit in 2020 life threw a curveball at us. We tied the knot at an intimate ceremony at the end of May 2021, and by June of 2021 I was deployed to Japan. We did not have time to have a honeymoon and now we are in the middle of a PCS to Florida. My wish is to surprise my wife with a honeymoon to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. I'd love to pamper her and stay at the Disney World Resort and spend at least a weekend (3 days) at the parks, but I know she and I would appreciate any help we can get. Thank you to all the generous donors who have given endless support to all of our brothers and sisters in the armed forces.

My name is Sgt Jesse Jackson. I met my wife in Fallon, Nevada. We both had a child from our previous marriage and we have one together. We've been married now for 8 years and our boys are growing like crazy. Through most of my surgeries my wife and kids have been there for me while I recovered and I want to show the my appreciation by taking them to Legoland since all 3 of our boys love building with legos and using their imagination. I would need 5 tickets for me, my wife, and our 3 boys.

Hello, my name is Jason Moore. My wife and I have been active duty for almost 6 years, I'm currently on a short notice deployment. We have 4 kids (4,6,8,10) and have taken a few deployments between the two of us in the last 4 years. These last two Covid years have made it hard on the kids as well. I'd like to take them all to Disneyland when I get back as a vacation. I appreciate the consideration and everything VETTIX does for this community. Thank you

My name is Staff Sergeant Breno Radici. I am currenntly in the Army where I have been serving a total of 20 years with 17 of those being active duty. I started my military journey with the Marine Corps where I served for 11 years before transitioning to the Army with who I am currently deployed. During my time in service, I have been deployed all over the world, from Kuwait, Iraq, Bahrain to Japan, South Korea and Spain. During this time, my wife has held the fort down and raised our two awesome boys (Michael 17 and Tyler 15). This year, Michael will be graduating high school and shipping off to Marine Corps boot camp in the fall. I have always wanted to take my family on a vacation to Disney World. I feel it would be a great show of appreciation to them for sticking by my side and making all the sacrifices they have made during the past 20 years. I would like to make this trip this summer upon returning from this deployment and before my son departs for boot camp. Thank you for your consideration of this wish and have a blessed day.

Wow, what can I say about this dream trip that was fulfilled by Vettix and the amazing donors! To say it was a dream vacation or a trip of a lifetime is an understatement. It was magical, simply put! We could not have imagined in our wildest dreams for such an amazing week at Disney World. Being able to bring my family for the first time and for our first vacation meant more to me than any words or thanks could ever express. We still have smiles on our faces from this amazing experience. From the very bottom of my heart, I want to sincerely thank Alesha, Wayne, Mary, Gary, Raymond, Shannon, Andrea, Michael, Krystyna, Allen, Kevin, Peter, Aaron, John, Analise, Eckart, James B, Spencer, Charity, Stephen, Jerald, Jose, Adele, Thomas, Margaret, Harold, Julie, Andra, Randy, Garrett, David, Thomas, Michael, Darrell and last but not least, the entire VETTIX staff for putting this all together and making it possible. These wonderful memories will last a lifetime and I will forever be grateful for all the donors and workers who made this possible. Thank you, so much. Breno and Family
