PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Sergeant Francis Manley Junior just thought he was a part of Tuesday’s 94WIP Morning Show promoting the USO’s #HugAHero campaign.
He had no idea the Phillies were about to honor him with an experience of a lifetime.
Manley, of the Army National Guard and Pennsylvania National Guard, who was with the director of advancement for Liberty USO Kate McCloud, was surprised by Phillies’ director of fun and games John Brazer on the 94WIP Morning Show.
“On the 18th [of March] we play the Pirates, it’s a Saturday,” Brazer said.
