Past Hero's Wishes
Hello my name is Lawrence Guerro. I was wounded in Iraq May 25th, 2007. After many surgeries and one more to go I will be able to get out and do more activities with my kids and wife. I will be cleared to board Airplanes. I would appreciate if you could help me spend at least a few days with my kids in a happy place. After I got hurt my kids were not kids anymore. They had to grow up fast because I got hurt and they had to help me deal with my situation. I just want to thank them and remind them that they are kids and also give my wonderful wife a break. I would like to thank you even if you keep us in your prayers that would be much more grateful than a trip. Thank you everyone that makes this VET TIX possible.

My name is Sgt. Isaac Vasquez of the US Army. I have a fiance, and my mom and brothers live in California. I'm currently deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF). I am a Patrol Explosive Detector Dog handler. I'm on a 12 month tour and I plan on going on RnR for two weeks at the end of June into Early July. My favorite baseball team is the San Francisco Giants. My wish is to attend a game when the Giants host the LA Dodgers (July5-July7). I've been a fan of the Giants for years and it would be the first time that I would get to see the Giants in person. My favorite Giants players are Sergio Romo, Buster Posey, and most of all Barry Zito for his support and work with the troops!!

My name is 1SG David Rye. I've been a fan of racing since going to small tracks with my Dad as a youngster. When NASCAR was first televised in 1979, watching it with my Dad became kind of a tradition. I never got to go to a NASCAR race with my Dad, but the race on Father's day would be kind of fitting to take something there to remember him. You see, he passed away this last November while I was deployed, and I didn't make it back in time to say goodbye. I've been in the military for 20+ years and have been deployed three times since 2006, with additional training events I think I have been home a total of 8 months in the last 6 years. I have never asked for anything from the military other then to serve and protect the soldiers I have led under me. My friend told me about this program and I thought if I could get accepted I could take a few soldiers I know would appreciate it. As far as favorite drivers, Dale Jr, Tony Stewart, and Matt Kenseth I guess. My wish would be to watch a NASCAR SPRINT cup race from the Pits.

Words cannot express the experience we enjoyed with the 5-Hour Energy Folks and Clint Boywer at the Quicken Loans 400 at MIS. The Family type enviroment and the hospitality of the sponsors was so enjoyable it truly became an emotional event as we were treated so special. Tim Gattshall was instrumental from 5-Hour in making sure we had access to pit tours and garage passes, truly making it an experience to remember. My Dad was smiling that day as I got to spend Father's Day with my son at the race, something I never got to do with my Dad. Thank you VETTIX for making this happen!!!

My name is Sean Anderson. I have recently returned from deployment in Afghanistan. I will be granted leave in June. We will be taking a long trip to visit family as my wife just had a baby at the end of February. My son is finally tall enough to ride all the roller coasters at Cedar Point. Since the focus has been mostly on the baby, we would like to do something special with him while on leave. My wish is take my family to Cedar Point Amusement Park. This was also the theme park that I went to when I was a child. It will be great to share my memories with him.

My name is Sgt. Jorge Segura. My wish is to take my wife, caregiver, to see George strait on June 1, 2013. I would need 2 tickets for the concert. My injuries consist of multiple traumatic brain injuries, right forearm blown off, reconstruction of right forearm. Limb salvage, multiple shrapnel wounds to upper left chest, and lower back. Removed part of my right thigh to save my forearm. My family is my greatest support I could ever have. My Wife, Stefani, my daughters, Samantha(5)and Olivia(2). My oldest daughter suffers from PTSD as do I from being and seeing such traumatic events. I left when she was three, and my wife was pregnant with my youngest child. It would be very amazing to give this gift to my wife for everything she has done for me, ever since my injury.

My name is Ryan Timms. My wish is to take my wife, and if possible,my son and my sister to see Taylor Swift Live, with seats as close as possible. I have served in the Army for 4 years. I was recently deployed to Afghanistan for 12 months with the 11th Theater Tactical Signal Brigade (Fort Huachuca, AZ), while my wife, Holly, stayed home alone to work and care for our pets. We both are big music fans, she being a huge country fan, especially Taylor Swift. It would be amazing to take her to this concert since this summer we will relocate so I can attend the Defense Language Institute and don't foresee much opportunity to do extra fun things while in school the next 2 years. It would be a really fun and exciting time for both of us, and our family, if were able to go. We are hoping to get tickets to Taylor Swift's RED Tour in Glendale, AZ (May 28 or May 29), and seats as close as possible would be really cool too.

Bill is currently deployed to Afghanistan, returning soon. Unfortunately, he has only been home for 2 of our daughter Sage's 12 birthdays. He wanted to do something special for her 13th birthday, which is April 20 - the same day the Harlem Globetrotters play locally. Sage REALLY loves basketball, so this is perfect.

Thanks Vettix, My daughter had a GREAT birthday watching the Harlem Globetrotters in Columbus, OH. If it wasn't for you she would have never been able to see them. Her and her friends had a blast. Thanks again Vettix couldn't have made it happen without you.

My name is TSgt Alex Mears. I have served in the military 14 total years. 4 years in the Marine Corps. and after September 11 I joined the Air Force for the next 10 years and still going. I am currently deployed in Qatar and will be heading home to my pregnant wife at the end of August. This is our first child, a girl, she is due in October. When I finally get home I get to take care of my wife, who will be over 7 months pregnant, since she has been taking care of herself the house and the dogs and still works too since I’ve been deployed. We both are big fans of the WWE and since we won’t be able to do much when I come back from deployment, we are hoping to go to WrestleMania XXIX after she recovers and have a little fun for ourselves. WrestleMania would really fun and exciting time for both of us and to go would be awesome. We are hoping to get tickets to WrestleMania XXIX and any AXXESS passes would be really cool too.
