helo plaque

[heppnerguy]

I have a grandson that just completed his green barrette training and moved onto another faze of his continual training to be the best he can be. This one is called HALO. It is where they go really high in an airplane, so as to not be detected and jump into enemy territory as a small special forces group, like they did when they got Osama Ben Laden. After a long free fall they then only employ their chutes when close to the ground. This plaque is the symbol of the HALO graduates. My grandson is one of my heroes and I am honored to make him this plaque.

Great job on that Dick. He should love that.

That is a gorgeous plaque, Dick, so very well done.

 I still think you people that jumped or still jump out of airplanes are a little on the crazy side!!  The plane would have to be burning hard and someone pounding on my fingers to make me let go before I went out of a plane that was still flying....!  Hats off to your grandson, he is very brave.

Sure miss our visits......

awesome work, dick! No doubt your grandson will be proud to receive that from his Grandfather;) You have every right to be proud of your grandson, my friend. Thank him for his service, Sir!

Thank you all for your replies on my work, but especially for the kind, respectful replies about my grandson.. Every time I see him, I remind him that he is my hero and I will pass on to him the comments from all of you who requested that I do so. He will be moved to the State of Washington soon and then he will join his special forces group that is already deployed. We continue to pray for him, daily as well as his wife and new baby boy. He is truly a person I admire and look up to. You are all so kind for the wonderful words of appreciation for him as well. That only adds to my feelings that we are all family here in The Village
