Redistricting in Wesley Chapel |

Could Tampa Bay get a louder voice in
Congress? That was one of the questions tossed at state
legislators as they stopped in Wesley Chapel Tuesday night
for a forum on redistricting. The Pasco County crowd is
concerned about gerrymandering. They don't want political
maps drawn like a plate of spaghetti. More from wtsp.com |

Pasco County VFW Post 7987 in Trinity |
Welcomes Home Real American Hero |
|
Cpt Justin Gaertner
By LuAnn
Carli |
On Saturday, May 14, the
VFW Post 7987 and other patriotic supporters lined the
streets of Trinity Blvd. in Pasco County, to greet a man
that they believe deserves all the accolades they can
bestow. An inspiring story about courage and the strength of
the human spirit comes from a young man of 22 years who
believes that the sacrifice of losing his legs and coming
close to losing his life altogether comes with the territory
when a man or woman signs up to protect the country that he
chose to defend. Cpl. Justin Gaertner, was on patrol on
Thanksgiving day, but his �work� was interrupted by an IED
explosion that left him fighting for his life on the
battlefield realizing that both of his legs were gone. His
one thought was not to worry his mother when he called his
family to tell them what had happened. |
