Tiverton Military Man Receives Fuel-Powered Send Off
When a Tiverton military man received the news about his next tour overseas, stress set in, but his friends wanted to make sure he didn’t leave without feeling love and appreciated.
Josh Haskell has been in the military for over 20 years. He has completed seven tours of duty, with three of those tours overseas. For his eighth tour, he will be packing up and heading to Japan with his wife and two children, eight and 10 years old.
“It’s been really stressful,” Haskell said. “It’s the hardest move now that the kids are older. I could’ve retired, but I didn’t. This one is harder.”
