"Good morning...from Iraq...I'm a US Army soldier, getting ready to finish out my tour in Iraq and was just wondering if you would like to pass on to Ben (and the rest of the team) some of the attached photos of me and my teammates during our travels through the country with my Terrible Towel.

"I've been a Steeler fan since I was a kid and never thought I'd get to do the things I've been doing for the Army and for our country...I just wanted to share these with you all and hope you enjoy them...One thing I've been able to do is follow the Steelers during this deployment and I'm looking forward to getting home and catching the last couple of the season from my home (in Virginia) with my family. Take care and thanks!"

January, 2011 - Showing support from "the other side of the world"1727 views "I'm LTJG William L. Tschumy, USN, and I just wanted to share a photo of a buddy of mine from Flight School who also just so happens to be one of your team's greatest fans! His name is Lieutenant Junior Grade Bobby Telatovich, callsign, "Fun Bobby", United States Navy, and is currently forward deployed. Honestly, I'm sending in this picture because I'm not sure how those Terrible Towels made their way to the other side of the world, but they did, and I thought it would be cool to show the rest of America, and the world this picture of a Die Hard Steeler Fan! He's the dude on the right with the sunglasses, one of my best buds. Thank you!" -- LTJG TschumyFeb 02, 2011

Colonel Bill Ellis, USAF1807 views"Here is a picture of my husband Bill Ellis, Colonel USAF. He is currently serving in Qatar and moving to Afghanistan on Monday.
I wanted to see if you would have the photo posted on the board at the field during the game. I just want to make a tribute to him. He works so hard and has been a loyal Steelers fan since he was 7 years old." -- Susan Ellis
