A Tango Battery Update

One of the greatest stories all year about folks supporting "T-Shirts for Troops" occurred when we were contacted by Evelyn Rivera. See the original story below

Evelyn, told us about her son, Ricky Santiago, a Marine with Tango Battery, stationed in Iraq. Evelyn works in the front office at Franklin School in Newark, the same grammar school Ricky graduated from in 1992!

The Principal, Susan Taylor and the staff at Franklin School wanted to get involved. They started the sales of the T-shirts, with the logo for Ricky's Marine Unit, Tango Battery. Sales just took off and the staff was allowed to wear the shirts every Thursday during the month.

The Marines of Tango Battery sent these pictures back to the Staff and Students at Franklin School.



Ricky Santiago has since returned safely from Iraq and has re-enlisted. Thanks to the wonderful staff at Franklin School in Newark, NJ for supporting "T-Shirts for Troops."
