The littlest SEAL

A feel good story from me for a change, an oldie, but still a goodie, a little lad called Mason Rudder who was born with Multiple Pterygium Syndrome (or Escobar Syndrome) which is a genetic disorder which effects his range of motion has so far indured ten surgeries for it and has to have wheelchair assistance for longer distance walking, quite a frustration for a boy of six years old who just wants to run around with his Dad and older brother and go hunting with them.
Well, Mason is also a big military fan, and wants to join the elite Navy SEALS unit, and a couple of years back, he got to work with one:

How awesome is that, and well done to Jared Ogden for giving that lad a taste of his dreams, and a day I'm sure that Mason will never forget.
