Past Hero's Wishes
My name is Albert Meraz. I am currently overseas for a year long tour in Afghanistan. I have my wife and two girls (6 and 2) at home supporting me and awaiting my return in the summer next year. My wish is to take them to legoland in Florida and stay there for the weekend in July when I should be able to take post deployment leave. They have been so strong through this tour and I would like to give them a nice fun break when I arrive back.

Hello my name is SGT Jeremy A. Looman. I just returned from Ukraine in support of Operation Atlantic Resolve with the Army National Guard. My youngest son, Sean, was born on the first day that I deployed to Ukraine. I returned a 2 weeks ago, and could only afford to take a week off before returning back to work. I have spent over 4 years in a combat zone, most of that time on Active Duty status with the 173D ABCT. It would mean the world to me spend time with Sean, and the rest of my beautiful family. My wish is for 6 Disney World Park Hopper Passes. My wife is amazing, such a sweet person and so deserving of a vacation. Even if this wish doesn't come true, I feel blessed to have served in the United States Army and the National Guard. My beautiful family consists of 7 but only need tickets for 6 because Sean is so young. Jenny my beautiful wife, Kyra (13), Halle (11), Jeremy Jr. (5), Jace (3), and Sean (7 Mo) and myself.

My name is LCDR Hugh Wilson. In December 2017 I returned from a reserve mobilization and six month deployment to Iraq. The deployment was a rewarding experience, but was somewhat unexpected and followed 14 months of working the night shift as a warehouse manager. During the deployment, my wife (a former Army Officer and Afghanistan veteran) was pregnant with our second daughter (she was born 3 days after I returned), raising our 2 year old and working full time. She never complained once throughout my deployment and was an amazing partner to me and mother to our girls. I would like to do something special for her to show my appreciation for the outstanding support and care she provided to our daughters and I while I was deployed. I would like to request two ticket for my wife and I to attend Hamilton when the touring production comes to the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.

My name is Lieutenant Junior Grade Dominic Scharret, My wife and I have been married for almost 5 years now, and I have not been able to take her on a proper honeymoon. I did not have the leave or money at the time of our wedding due to the fact I was stationed in San Diego and our wedding was in Georgia (all of my leave and money was spent on travel back to my duty station). Since our wedding, I have not had time to take her on a proper honeymoon due to deployments, OPTEMPO and the fact I was selected for Officer Candidate School (OCS). After training at OCS, I received my commission and went further into more grueling training for flight school. I have not had time to take any vacations with my wife, let alone make up for her missed honeymoon. Recently, I was selected into the HR community and now, I finally have a position where I have the time to be able to take her on the honeymoon she deserves. I would like to take her to Universal Studios Hollywood. She is obsessed with Harry Potter.

Hello, my name is SSG Phi Nguyen and I just recently returned home from my 2nd deployment and wish to take my family on a vacation to Disney World. After my 1st deployment I was unable to take them anywhere on a vacation so I would love to surprise them this time around with a trip to Disney World. Although this was only my 2nd deployment, I have missed countless birthdays, anniversaries, multiple holidays and school functions which has been really tough on my family, not just myself. I want to let my family know that I appreciate them for all their sacrifices that they have had to make while I was away. I would love to have three 4-day park hopper passes to Disney World. Thank you so much for any help in making my wish for my family dream come true. I greatly appreciate all the support.

I am a Navy Corpsman, currently on my 3rd deployment. I am married to my beautiful wife, Sandra, and we have 3 boys -Kayden (7), Christopher (5), and Samuel (1). Due to monetary constraints, I have been unable to give my family a true vacation. I wish to bring my family to Disney World and have a memorable vacation with them. The military keeps me away from my family far more than I wish, and I want to have a special vacation with my family. I don't want my boys to look back and only remember me being gone all the time. I want my family to have a little bit of fun if that is possible.

My name is Chief Petty Officer Bradley, Erik. It'll be 16 years of service come this May 2018. The toughest part about being in the military is leaving a support system like no other...my family has sacrificed so much for my career and continues to do so. I am currently deployed to the Persian Gulf and will not return until December sometime (7 months gone). My wife and I have had dreams of taking our boys to Disney since they were 2 and 4 (now 7 and 9) and have not had the funds to take our boys on a family vacation. I would love to be able to surprise our 2 boys with a trip to Disneyland to try to make up for all the missed birthdays, anniversaries and holidays. I would like to make a Hero's wish to request (4) Disneyland 3-day park hopper tickets for my family; My wife Rebecca and our 2 boys; CJ 9, Trenton 7. We would love to take this trip in February or March 2018. Any sort of contribution would be greatly appreciated and a dream come true for all of us. Please help our family with a vacation that will be remembered for a lifetime and we would be forever grateful. Thank you and God Bless.
