A little about Team Island Warriors

Marty Cryer is one very proud Marine Mom and we thank her for assisting us in the creation of Team Island Warriors! Our Angels are excited about this opportunity to support Lt. Scott Cryer and his Island Warriors.

Scott writes, "My section is in charge of the logistics for the training and day to day operations of 2/3. The 2/3 is an infantry battalion and I am part of the Logistics section and UDP program."

Mom shares, "He was married on December 31st to his high school sweetheart, but had to return to TBS just two days after his wedding. After finishing
TBS, he left for his school, after which they moved to his duty station in Hawaii. They were together for about three weeks before he left on his deployment. So although they have been married for almost seven months, they have been together only about 6 weeks.

In spite of that, they both love being part of the Marine Corps. His father was a Marine who was part of the Multinational Peacekeeping Force in Beirut when the Marine Corps barracks was bombed in 1983. Scott's older brother is a helicopter pilot at Camp Pendleton, and his younger brother is in a Naval ROTC program. Both grandfathers and an uncle also are veterans, so being in the military is a family tradition."

We are proud to be able to support Scott during his deployment and look forward to showering him with loads of Angel Goodie Boxes to help keep our Marine's happy!
