Shoutouts
Ya’ll know how I feel about our troops. Whether you support the war or not you better support our troops. Let’s all remember how we got our Liberties in the first place. I get letters daily from soldiers who are missing the season because of their Tour of Duty. Whether in the desert or forest; in a tank or on stand — we are all Hunters. This is a place where we all can give a SHOUT OUT to our Brotherhood of Bone Collector’s.

I would just like to say, I am a SSG in the US army Reserve and have been deployed to Kuwait and Iraq. My oldest son Chris is there now with my old unit, who I deployed with in 2003, doing my old job.
My youngest son just swore in with the Navy and leaves in May. So as most of yall have figured by now I am not only proud to serve my country but also a very proud Dad.
My Family! PROUD TO SERVE, WILLING TO DIE, LIVE TO HUNT!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!

To the protectors of our FREEDOM:
Thank you so very much for selflessly defending our nation, families, values, and freedoms. Without the dedication and heroism of all the men and women who fight to protect the country I love so much, none of this would be possible. I get goosebumps and damn’ner tear up when I think about all the sleepless and uncertain nights you go through. Not a day goes by that I do not think of your service to our country and hope to buy each one of you I meet on the street dinner and a beer when you get back. I know some in this country take for granite the work that you do. I make sure to remind every punk protester that I see, the freedoms and liberties that all them to make asses of themselves is protected and preserved by your selfless service to our country. Thank you and God Bless. Our thoughts and prayers are with you with each sandy step you take.

This is for my cousin, SPC Timothy Goldacker, and all of the men and women who sacrifice so much for all of our freedom! THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts! If you have children, and for yourselves, look up sign language for “Thank You” and learn it!! Most people don’t know what to say when they see a soldier because “Thank You” just doesn’t seem like enough, so we often don’t say anything at all. I’ve taught it to my 3 boys and everytime they see a soldier they can’t wait to sign “Thank You” to them, and there’s just something about seeing a soldier smile so big!!! When I hear the song “Chicken Fried” by the Zac Brown Band it really makes me smile because it reminds me of my cousin, and all the simple things in life that I’m very greatful for!
My cousin is suppose to be out of the Army in March 2009, but they have already set the Stop Loss date for Jan. 1, 2009 so he will be going back to Iraq as early as Nov.2008 for 1 year. We remain strong, and know that God asks great things of great people!! Sorry this was so long, but this is one subject that really touches my heart!

I will be leaving for Iraq next spring so I have one more season to hunt before I go. Hopefully it will be a good one. From all of us who do serve, thank you for your support and wishes. Keep the faith and keep showing your pride and support for all soldiers, it really does every military member’s heart some good to hear the words “thank you for all you do”. So on behalf of a great and prideful military, thank you for the support.

I’d like to give a huge Thanks to all of the men and women serving at home and abroad. I’ve been privileged to travel to other countries and get a small glimpse of what life is like when democracy isn’t an option. Some people forget all too easily that the freedoms we enjoy as Americans are hard-fought freedoms, and never EVER free. We’re forever indebted to the ones who keep our freedoms within reach. Thank you. God Bless You. And may you all have a safe trip home.

Hey guy I am from Kentucky currently serving in Afghanistan. This is the first year I am not going to be home for the Bowhunting. I really appreciate what everyone is saying about the soldiers, we really do appreciate it. I think this is a great website waddell’s created, it sure makes me miss home.

We are so lucky to live in this country, and have the freedoms we have. And its all thanks to our military. I come from a family with a lot of military background. I have had to sacrafice time with my dad growing up so he could go serve. Thanks you so much for what your doing for our country!
August 10th, 2008 at 8:27 pm
I just wanted to THANK all you guys and gals in our Armed Forces for all you do every day. Without your hard work and dedication, we wouldn’t have the freedoms we have today. As I was reading through the other (shoutouts), Jeremys caught my attention, please don’t forget about our WW2 vets. My father was a WW2 vet, he didn’t talk much about what he went through over there but to me he was a HERO.
August 10th, 2008 at 7:22 am
I am a Veteran of the Iraq war and an about to leave again for another deployment. I just want to thank you and all your guys for the support. With out it we couldnt do what we do. I look forward to coming home and seeing the new show “Bone Collectors”. Keep up the awesome job.

I am an iraq vet and proud of that, my brother is still there handling his business in sadr city. I am grateful to all you folks that support the troops, but please remember the old vets esp those from ww2. They are passing at a high rate of speed, and they are the real heros in my book. We have the best gear there is and those boys didnt have much at all and had some of the worst fights in history, battle of the bulge, guadal canal, iwo jima. Do YOURSELF a favor, thank and meet a vet like those guys.

Too all you folks in the Armed Forces and your families,
My family and I appreciate everything you all do, and have done, for our country and us. We do not take for granted the sacrifices you, your prior brothers and sisters in arms, and all of the families have made. You all are the best of the best and the cream of the crop, and we applaud you for your dedication and hard work.
God Bless, take care of business, and come home safe.

I just want to thank all the men and women in our armed forces for the tremendous job they are doing. As a veteran myself, I know the sacrifices these heroes are making everyday. Let’s make sure that they all know how much their sacrifices mean to us and never let them be taken for granted! Thank you all for your service to this great country!
July 8th, 2008 at 7:37 am

Thanks guys and gals for all you do to protect my family and I. If you have any cool pics you’d like to share with your fellow hunters send them on. It’d be great to post some pics from your time in the field. Be safe and hurry home..the woods are waiting! Waddell

Thanks to all the troops who put it all on the line for us to enjoy what freedoms we have! Each and every animal we kill is dedicated to our troops and the memories of those we have lost. Be safe and get home soon! Thanks for everything!

What all the troops do for our country gives us hunters our freedom. There is definitely no better feeling of freedom than sitting on stand on a frosty morning waiting on daylight and “FREAK NASTY” to show up…..God Bless all our TROOPS! Stay safe and get home soon.

Our country would be a totally different place and our lives would not be the same if it wasn’t for our soldiers. So thank you for all that you’ve done and all that you will do in the future. We owe our freedom and the right to live the way we do to you. -Aaryn
