Troop Salute 11-23-20: Simon Peter Hemingway US Army
Listen now
Description
We love and honor all of our troops here and we're proud to salute them on this show. Even if they're fresh out of boot camp, or leaving next week, we salute those who have made the commitment to this nation. And there is no time in service necessary to be honored here - I am just as thrilled to honor a new recruit as I am to honor a WWII vet who did 30 years. Today we are saluting Simon Peter Hemingway of the United States Army. Simon just graduated from boot camp, and his mother Lorraine McCready is incredibly proud of him. With the last name of Hemingway, those Drill Sergeants probably had some fun with Simon, but it all adds to the strength and character that everyone builds in Basic. Simon has a lot of adventure ahead of him, and his service will help to ensure our American Way of Life. For that, we are so very proud to be saluting Simon Peter Hemingway of the United States Army.
