Lt. Col. Ty Edwards - A Hero Amongst Heroes

Tybee Island, Ga. --- Many of the readers of this blog will recall that our family member L/C Ty Edwards, Marine Corps was wounded during an ambush while serving in Afghanistan and thankfully has been recovering remarkably well due to the commitment of his PT nurses, his lovely wife and family, and his parents. Kay, Penelope and I had the distinct privilege of visiting Ty while we were in Florida working earlier this year.

Recently Ty awarded a Bronze Star to a fellow Marine and was honored to also be awarded himself a Jefferson Award. Below you will find his television debut.

We are very proud of Ty and all his men. And we want all the men and women who serve so valiantly and with such dedication to protect our country in this war on terror to remember the overwhelming majority of the American people support your efforts. We believe in the value of taking the war to the enemy and we send each of you our prayers daily and God's speed for a safe return to your home and family.

Oooray! Dr. D.
