Joey Jordan 12/21/08
God created family and friends for a purpose. The members of Brazoria County Cavalry showed My son Joey and our family what that truly means on Sunday December the 21st. Your members gave up there time on a GOD’S day to welcome Joey home from Afghanistan. I wish that every Military member in the country could have such an AWESOME welcome home. I will always remember the face that Joey had when the youth football players walked down the street with American flags held high. Then he almost fainted when the parade of Fire, Police and Cavalry vehicles and cycles turned the corner. A special Thanks goes to Tracy for planning this event and including our two nephews who fought in Iraq and did not have the homecoming that you provided for Joey. That also made their day. The Cavalry puts a special meaning into how we care for our troops and what they do for our freedom. Thank you all and GOD BLESS each of you.
David, Tina Ashley Tim and Joey Jordan.

Christmas Ride 12/20/08
“Tracy I have to say again your folks will never know what you do to our
family and all the other families that you come in contact with, all of you
are truly an incredible bunch of people. Just when you give up on any “good
guy’s” being around anymore in rides Brazoria County Cavalry. And at that point
all of your faith in mankind is restored. I hope that you and your family
along with all of the families in BCC have a very Safe and Blessed
Christmas Season.” Please share this message.

This was probably one of the best moments that I’ve ever had. I just came back from Iraq and was told that there was a little party for me. I was taking pictures out in the front when all of sudden I heard sirens going off down the street. I had no idea what was going on until the riders were about two houses down the street. I was speechless the whole time. My wife and in-laws did the best thing I could ever ask for, and I didn’t even ask for it. It was a very warm homecoming and it couldn’t have been any better.
