Great story, and another reason (after getting rid of the dog-killer) for me to return to Eagle fandom.

However, I don't see the good captain playing wide receiver at 6' 9" and 277 pounds. Tight end maybe?

I assume so...I remember him playing for Army. The QB would just throw a jump ball in the corner of the end zone and he would go get it.

He is a friggin hero...Ranger, 3 Afghan tours, and sounds like two Bronze Stars.

Great article! Wish him nothing but the best of luck...unless he is playing against the Cowboys.

Bronze stars with valor. Outstanding young man and wish him the best of luck.
