Phillies and pros

It is a lot of fun sitting here watching the game with some of the guys from the 1-150th. Nick Miccarelli's wearing his Phillies T-shirt and he's heated up some chicken wings for everybody. As I watch them enjoying the game, I think I hope these professional athletes and all the fans waving their towels appreciate what these men and women are doing here. They literally put their lives on the line every day, every single moment and they focus and keep doing their job despite all that jeopardy just so we can enjoy our lives as we know it in the States. Thank you, 1-150th (and all the other military) for your strength and devotion. I feel like I'll be the one in the stands waving the towel for you.
