No Hockey Jerseys in Mississippi
No Hockey Jerseys in Mississippi
Thursday night was also the first Sharks Jerseys game for Spc. Gregg Fernandez of the 155th Infantry Brigade, Mississippi National Guard. He said they dont have much Sharks Apparel in Mississippi.
Fernandez was shot in the neck Aug. 23 during a firefight south of Baghdad. A bullet fragment also went into his eye. But he said that hed go back to Iraq without a moments indecision, if he could.
Staff Sgt. Carlos Farler agreed. He was injured in Karbala while on patrol with the 940th Military Police Company, Kentucky National Guard.
The people were so appreciative, Farler said about the Iraqis. He said while on foot patrols, many Iraqis would walk up and shake his hand, thanking him for keeping the streets safe.
