The letters column in your August 1 is-
sue caught my eye; I enjoyed the “Passion
Project” article onGary Sinise in the same
issue, which got my attention because my
son, Orion, is a pilot in the Marine Corps
and is currently in Afghanistan. It’s been
gut-wrenchingnot knowinghowhe’s doing
and even tougher feeling like there’s noth-
ing I cando to support himor helpout like
I’ve done all his life. Thanks to your article
andGarySinise, Inowhave several options
for getting involved besides sending stuff
through themail.
The last article in themagazine, Carlton
Stowers’s “The Perfect Day,” really touched
home.BaseballhasbeenOrion’spassionhis
entire life, and I coached his Little League
team until he joined his high school team,
which made it to the semifinals in Texas.
This column touchedmyheart andbrought
back memories of Orion growing up in
baseball. I began writing to my son on a
scrap of paper about my memories of his
love of the game, which includedwatching
him come up out of the dust smiling with
the ball after making a diving catch on a
pop-up, how he’d tip his hat to the batter
after striking him out, his leaping to snag
the last out of the last gameof aperfect sea-
son in 1994, and, years later on the Fourth
of July, 2009, at theUSMCbase inHawaii,
watchingOrionmake another diving catch
