Maine's USA Games Basketball Team,

Coach Hamel & Sgt. Thomas R. Murray III

“The interaction with Sgt. Murray during

the USA Games was one of the highlights of

the week for me and the Team, and it

was so heartwarming to listen to and

watch Sgt. Murray’s remarks to the

Team when we presented him with the

autographed ball.  I was absolutely

blown away with the remarks

in Sgt. Murray’s e-mail.”
