SEC Tournament
Hi I'm SPC Calen Kirkland and I am currently in Iraq. My family and I are huge Kentucky basketball fans. My dad has only been to one UK game and my younger brother has never gone to one. They mean the world to me and I would love to be able to spend the day watching the Cats with them. I won't be home in time for the regular season so the only way to catch a game would either be the SEC Tournament or in the NCAA Tournament. Thank you for taking the time to look at my wish and thanks for what you are doing! |

I know it has been my husbands dream to meet Phoenix Suns Steve Nash or Some of the Suns Players. I would love to make this possible. He is an amazing guy who not only serves our country but is also a Cop and serves the community. I Hope that with your help this may come true.

Academy of Country Music Awards
I am currently deployed in Iraq. I will be on leave from 1 Apr 10 to 21 Apr 10 and will be in FL and Las Vegas, NV. I recently found out the Academy of Country Music Awards will be taking place in Vegas during that time. I am a huge country music fan and tried to buy tickets online, but they were sold out. If there is a way I can get them through this organization, I will pay for them. Thanks!! |

Justin Bieber
My husband Cpl. Charles Palmer was Killed In Action Iraq May 5th 2007. My 11 year old daughter has never really asked for anything since. She has asked me to try to get tickets to see Justin Beiber in concert. If there would be anyway possible, this would make one little girl so happy. He is playing at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, NY on February 20, 2010. We are willing to travel just to attend this concert. Thank you for anything you can do to make this happen.

USS ALASKA BLUE Trip to NYC

My Commnd will be conducting a trip to the NYC area in order to speak to NROTC Midshipman at the United States Merchant Marine Academy and State University of New York at Maritime College.

As part of the trip I would like to get my guys to some of New York's attractions- Whether it be a Broadway show, sporting event (Rangers, KNicks, etc) or tour of a historic landmark. Do you have any information on what will be available between

Last Minute Plea so Husband Gets To See Show in Las Vegas before he deploys!
I know that this might be impossible at the last minute but certainly worth it to see his smile if someone is able to fufill!
My husband, Cpl West, who previously served from 2002-2006 at 29 Palms, CA & Camp Pendleton. Then he re-joined as Reserve in August 2009...and is now back to Active Duty. I am so proud of MY Hero and I hope everyone understands exactly what I am talking about.
He will deploy to Afghanistan in March for 7 months, leaving behind myself and our 3 young boys ages 7, 4 & 2. The one thing that we wanted to do before he deployed was to return to Las Vegas where we were married and celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary. While in Las Vegas our hope is to see George Strait in concert at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Sat. February 6th, 2010...but any show to celebrate our anniversary would be appreciated. We have everything else set & reserved(non-refundable) and we're being joined by his sister, a Veteran of the Navy. Just when I thought we were set, I am unable to find tickets that we are able to afford..I'm blown away by the fact that the cheapest tickets I have found are $200 a each!
Now I fear that the one thing that he wanted to do before his deployment is out of reach. I am not ready to give up. I hope & pray that someone out there can bring the biggest smile ever not only to his face but also to mine. My husband is a very hard worker and very dedicated to everyone else's needs. He fights hard for our family as well as our country therefore, I am fighting to bring a smile to his face. Please someone, help me in my wish for my Hero so that he holds onto that memory over there as a reminder of what he is fighting for. Thank you all so much for what you do & thanks to everyone who has served, currently serves and plans to serve in the future.
