Need my family's prayers
Feb 11^th, 2011 at 10:03pm

Today my son Mike's buddy's rackmate, Jacob Romo, lost both legs above the knees to an IED in Afghanistan. His wife is pregnant. Please pray for them.

Our kids over there are doing a great job, and they need our support. They are due to come off the line in March. So close! 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines have taken more casualties than any other outfit since Viet Nam (multiple deployments) Please pray for the outfit as a whole.

Thank you so much.

Jerry

Thoughts go out to Jacob, his family and fellow marines.
