Titans sponsor titanic homecoming

| November 23, 2010

Jodi Foster wrote an essay that got her honored on the Tennessee Titans’ LP Field. She wrote;

He laid out my life’s path in front of me and taught me the skills to follow it on my own. I see the honor in his eyes every morning he puts on that uniform, and one day I want my family to look at me the way we look at dad.” Our daughter Hunter, says, “My dad drove in a snowstorm at 35 mph from Kentucky to Ohio, a nine-hour trip, that ended up taking 16, just to spend a few hours with me and hold my hand after my knee surgery, then had to leave the next morning to make it back to work on time. If that’s not a true sacrifice I don’t know what is.” Our 12-year-old, Kayla, kept it short and sweet, “My dad loved me enough to adopt me. No one gave me to him, mom, he picked me.” I am proud of him for enduring what he does and the sacrifices and cho

As a result, 70,000 football fans were treated to SGT Mark Foster’s homecoming;

As homecomings go this is one of the best. Sadly my own homecomings have essentially been to an Empty Room in the Barracks.

S’ok, Doc. We’re glad you’re back.

Welcome home.

Bret Baier had that story on at the end of Special Report this afternoon. The video was from a different angle, from the local Fox affiliate. I had a problem with dust in my eyes, too…
