Occationally we get email for various request such as for tickets and requests for scouts to visit a high schooler just to name two. But this request hits closer to home. This involes a fellow american who is Hokie at heart who is going to be deployed to Iraq and wishes someone to help him just watch a Hokie game.
We are posting his letter on our blog hoping that someone has the knowledge and resources to help Captain Sigler from Hampton.
My name is Jason Sigler. I am from Hampton VA. Growing up I started going to VT football games with a man from my local church, Howard Thomas class of ’73. I was 14 when he began to take me to the games in Blacksburg. I later married his daughter Brooke and have continued to attend games every year except for the two seasons I have been deployed over seas. I am a graduate of the United States Military Academy, but a Hokie at heart. I love going to Blacksburg, Mike’s, and the football games.
I am a CPT in the Army, deployed to Baghdad Iraq. The facilities here are much nicer than they were in 2003, when I was here with the 3ID, but we have very limited access to television. I was hoping to be able to catch a few of the games on DVD if possible, if you know anyone that could help me out I would appreciate it.
Thank you.
Respectfully,
CPT Jason Sigler

Note from CPT Jason Sigler Written by admin on 2005-09-16 06:33:23 Hokie Fans, Thank you so much for your overwelming support. I am touched by the response to the BLOG I posted reguarding seeing the games. Thank you VT-Football.com for posting my message. This proves something I have know for years...Hokie Fans are the best! I am doing well and only ask that everyone continue to keep all of the soldiers deployed in your daily thoughts and prayers. Thank you again. Jason Go Hoikes
