EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. - Weakened by a lifelong struggle with cystic fibrosis, 14-year-old Riley Woina dreamed of being strong like the heroes he'd seen in war movies like "Black Hawk Down."

So when he was offered the opportunity through the Make-A-Wish foundation to realize his dream, he jumped at the chance.

This one made me smile. A salute to the U.S. Army Rangers and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. For all they did for Riley.
 
I read this story with tears in my eyes and a smile on my face. What a wonderful thing for these military guys to do for this boy.
