Gloves 4 Troops
If his garage can handle it, Memphis Redbirds shortstop Vance Albitz will reach his goal of sending 1,000 baseball gloves and balls to American soldiers in Afghanistan before the start of Spring Training, 2013.
Says Vance-
Recently, I was reading an article on our troops based in Afghanistan. I was intrigued to hear the response of one soldier when asked the question, “What would you like people back home to send you?”
“Baseball gloves and a baseball,” he said. “So much of our tasks are hurry up and go, followed by waiting.”
The decision was made shortly after that: 1,000 gloves to U.S. troops around the world. More than anything, they’ll know we’re thinking about them. Let’s make it happen.
