MY NEXT TOUR by Geoge S. Sinko MSG Ret. USAR Special Forces 18D


Hello one and All,

Well after five tours to Iraq, and tours to Bosnia, Hungary, Germany, and Egypt on training missions and 2.5 years in Laos, I figure the next tour will be my tour.


This spring I will attempt to complete the tour of a lifetime, the America's Great Loop Cruise or "the Great Circle Tour", (the circumnavigation of Eastern North America via. ICW, a voyage of approximately 6000 miles), in a 26' pontoon boat, "The Patriot".  The main goal behind this challenging tour is to earn donations for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, a non profit Veterans Organization educational fund that supports children of fallen warriors and provides assistance to severely wounded warriors.  Secondly, to earn a record in the Guiness Book of Records for the smallest pontoon boat to accomplish this feat (and to have fun doing it). 

Individuals and organizations can pledge tax free contributions of .01 to .05 cents per mile or a ($60 - $300 total pledge more) or make donations.
 
All checks or money orders will be made out to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Your participation and sponsorship in this challenging tour will greatly be appreciated.

Checks can be sent to:
Special Operations Warrior Foundation,
P.O. Box 13483
Tampa, FL 33681-3483
