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.
00:10Military Monday, we got Lindsey on the phone who is honoring her husband, Nathan, today.
00:14Good morning, Lindsey. How are you?
00:17Good. How are you?
00:18Good. We're excited to honor your Marine husband.
00:22Tell us about his service, how long he's been in the service, and what his rank is now.
00:27He's a master sergeant. He's actually infantry, so he travels a lot.
00:32He's been in for 21 years this year.
00:35Wow.
00:37And how long have you guys been together?
00:39We've been together for 10. We've been married for 10, and yeah, we've been all over the place.
00:44So when you marry a Marine, what does that come with? I would love to hear that.
00:50Well, they're either deployed or you're with them overseas, basically.
00:54So do you travel with him a lot?
00:56Well, we were overseas for a good nine years, so we've been in Okinawa, Japan.
01:02We actually did two years there, and then we went overseas again.
01:06We went to Mexico and to Africa.
01:08So yeah, we're all over the place.
01:10Wow, that's tough.
01:11And now we're in Tampa.
01:12And do you guys have kids together?
01:14Yes. We have two boys, both born in Japan.
01:17We have an almost two-year-old and almost seven-year-old.
01:20So you're being a mom, and you're traveling around at the same time,
01:23and obviously your husband serving our country as well.
01:25Wow.
01:26Yes.
01:27Wow. You guys sound like an amazing family.
01:29Outside of, you know, obviously all the great work that he's doing for our country,
01:33what is something that you love about your husband?
01:36He's pretty easygoing, which is like, I don't know, he goes with the flow.
01:40Well, that's got to be nice.
01:41And what are some things he likes to do when he's not working and serving?
01:45Um, I mean, he likes traveling, which is surprising.
01:49Since he moves around already?
01:51Yeah.
01:52But yeah, we like the beach.
01:54We've got to be close to the beach.
01:55Yeah.
01:55He's been thankful enough to be able to do that, be next to the beach every time.
01:59Oh, I love that.
02:00Well, very cool.
02:01Well, we're so excited that we got to learn a little bit about Nathan today,
02:04and we're so thankful for his service.
02:06And we say it, and we mean it.
02:08Lindsay, we thank you for your service as well, being a mom and being a wife of someone
02:13who was in the military.
02:14We cannot thank the spouses enough.
02:17So thank you so much.
02:19Well, thank you.
02:20You guys are great, too.
02:21Well, we appreciate that.
02:23We want to give you a $100 gift card from Stingray Chevrolet.
02:27Maybe you guys can go do something fun as a family.
02:29And we just appreciate you so much.
02:32Absolutely.
02:33Well, hang on for me, and I'm going to have Kevin talk to you,
02:36and we'll get you all taken care of, okay?
02:37Okay.
02:38Appreciate it.
