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.
00:10All right, it is Military Monday.
00:12We've got Sarah on the phone who is honoring her husband, Timothy, today.
00:16Good morning, Sarah. How are you?
00:17I'm good. How are you doing?
00:18I'm doing great.
00:19So tell us about your husband so we can honor him today for Military Monday.
00:23What branch did he serve in and a little bit about his service?
00:28He was in the Army.
00:30He served in OIS and OEF.
00:33That's Operation Iraqi Freedom.
00:35Wow. And how many years was he in the Army?
00:37From 2002 to 2005.
00:40Now, did he ever think about making this a career?
00:42He did. He had to get out early because of a broken family plan.
00:46He had to come home and take care of his daughter.
00:49Gotcha. And what do you think drew him, I mean, besides the obvious, what do you think drew him to serve?
00:54He was sitting in school when 9-11 happened.
00:57He said that somebody needed to help, and that's what made him decide to go and join the Army.
01:04Wow. Well, listen, we are so thankful for Timothy's service, and we're appreciative of you, Sarah, for shining a light on him.
01:12He deserves this, obviously.
01:14And a small way we want to say thank you is give you a $100 gift card from our friends at Stingray Chevrolet.
01:19Again, this is a small way for us to say thank you for his service.
01:23Awesome.
01:24Thanks again, Sarah. Hang on for me.
