  • Just to clear things up..... these 3 guys are our sons. The location is SAN ANTONIO, TX. With the SW DRAGONS.
    My husband and I are very proud of them. Starting “Center”#61 Joshua had no idea his brother was planning anything. With it being Nov. 10th the Marine Corps birthday, he wanted to honor his brother and run through their team tunnel with the Marine Corps flag before the game. Never did he except that his brother would show up on the field.
    After not being able to see any of his brothers high school games, Lance Corporal Efrain Martinez surprises brothers Joshua & Elijah Martinez, during Joshua's senior game.
    The Dragons and the Bobcats both played a great game. The Dragons came out with the WIN. It was a great night at the Martinez house for sure.

      Mr.bobitto 101 i know this is late but i think they are referring to how proud the parents should be. I think the mother was the one who made and posted the video either that or the sister if they have one.

It's really refreshing and strange when people come up and thanks us old farts for serving. There's alot of our brothers and sisters in arms that needs help and still fighting to get very little.
