00:00Tampa Bay's morning crew want to honor and thank those who protect and serve our country.
00:05Time now for Military Monday on 99.5 QYK.
00:11All right, we've got Lisa on the phone who is honoring her boyfriend today, David.
00:15Good morning, Lisa. How are you doing?
00:16Good morning. I'm doing great. Thank you.
00:19All right, so let's talk about David.
00:20He is a U.S. Marine, and you said that he spent a lot of his 20s overseas. Is that right?
00:26Yes. He didn't have the typical 20-year-old lifestyle like most of us did.
00:32Right.
00:32He was very different.
00:33Where are some of the places that he served?
00:35I know he was in Afghanistan for a while, the Middle East.
00:38Okay, gotcha.
00:39Now, when you talk to David about his service, because I know a lot of military men and women sometimes are not very open about it,
00:46but from what he has said, what are some things that you've learned about David?
00:49No, yeah. So, I've learned to really appreciate that he's risked his life for people that he didn't really know or owe anything to,
01:00and I really admire that about him.
01:04Not only did he risk his life, obviously, for his fellow Marines, but, like, thousands and thousands and thousands of people that he had never, ever met before.
01:13So, I thought that was really great of him.
01:15It's an amazing sacrifice, no doubt about it.
01:18What can you tell us about David, just as a guy?
01:20I mean, this is your boyfriend. Let's talk about him.
01:22Yeah, so, he's super patient.
01:27Extremely thoughtful.
01:29Great sense of humor.
01:30We're always laughing and having fun.
01:33His perspective on life definitely makes me want to live more thoughtfully.
01:38Okay.
01:38I always try to find the silver lining in any difficult situation, and he helps me with that.
01:45He's very reassuring.
01:47He's just a really, really awesome person.
01:49Well, it sounds like you've got a great guy, and we've got a great Marine, so we both lucked out, huh?
01:52Yeah.
01:53Yes, for sure.
01:55Well, listen, we'd like to do this for David and for you, Lisa.
01:58We have a $100 AMX gift card from Tampa Premium Outlets that we'd like to give you,
02:02and also a $50 gift card from PDQ, just our way of saying thank you to David,
02:07and I hope you guys can go do something fun together.
02:10Yeah, for sure. I really appreciate that. Thank you guys so much.
02:12You've got to give our love and our thanks to David, okay?
02:15Thank you. I will.
02:16Awesome. Thanks again.
02:17Thanks, guys.
02:18Well, we want to hear more stories like that for Military Monday, so reach out.
