Mike Escamilla makes the rounds with the troops
I had the opportunity to go to Iraq recently and be involved in some shows for the troops. Of all the trips I've ever been on this was the most gratifying one yet. The excitement and sincerity of the troops was so honest and real. We visited bases in Bagdad, Basrah and Hunter. I got to meet so many people and hear so many stories.
Hurley made custom shirts for the troops, which were a hit; Skullcandy, Happy Madison and Tony Hawk also gave gear to give out. I really want to thank everyone who made this trip happen and a special thank you to all the troops all over the world who are out there missing their families to keep us safe. Here are a few photos form my trip. —Rooftop
