SOCCER-LOVING SEAMAN GETS A KICK OUT OF RE-ENLISTING

SOCCER-LOVING SEAMAN GETS A KICK OUT OF RE-ENLISTING

SAN DIEGO (Wireless Flash) – Baseball may be America’s past time but one San Diego-based seaman gets a bigger kick out of soccer. 25-year-old Naval Petty Officer Greg Raelson is so gung-ho on soccer that he’s chosen an indoor soccer game as the place to re-enlist. This Sunday (Oct. 28), the San Diego Sockers are canceling their pre-scheduled halftime show so that Raelson can re-enlist in full uniform while the team gives him a 21-soccer ball salute. Raelson says he wants to re-enlist at a soccer game to salute America’s soccer moms and to let the world know Americans actually like soccer.
