Tyler was nominated by Victoria:
Nominating my husband and the father of my 2 beautiful babies. He is an aviation boatswain mate equipment. He launches and recoveres aircraft on board the USS Dwight D Eisenhower. He has served for 5 years now. And still has another 3 years to go as of now. I am nominating him because he deployed right before our son was born and didn’t get to meet his son until he was 7 months old. Also having to leave our 2 yr old daughter. I guess to me that’s a hero to be able to get through a deployment with a sane mind. While your son is at home learning and missing all his firsts moments in life. While also listening to your daughter cry and want daddy to come home on every phone call and FaceTime. Which thank god for that technology because sometimes it can really break a heart. He re enlisted while on that deployment not really wanting to because he was missing the kids so much but knowing it would help us as a family in the end. Also making it to where I was able to get out of the military myself after serving my 5 years. I am now a stay at home mom of our 2 kids and getting to watch them grow up and helping them learn everyday.
