  • 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 nice to see this and the respect for the people who served this country . Times sure have changed since the 60s and 70 when me and my brothers in arms were spit on and called baby killers. 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. We need to revamp the VA and take care of all vets past and present. Sorry I dont mean to rant after this beautiful video but we need changes to help those who served. Praise jesus our lord and savior and God bless America.
