Happy Birthday to the legendary Pat Tillman—the football star who swapped touchdowns for tactical drills, helmets for Kevlar! How many NFL players could honestly say they traded their cleats in to become an Army Ranger? Only you would tackle opponents on one Sunday and enemy territory shortly after.Your phenomenal legacy remains stronger than ever; from the Arizona State Sun Devils field where your tackles made headlines, through Arizona Cardinals glory days under stadium lights. But perhaps more impressive was choosing duty over dollar signs—a move neither sport nor nation will ever forget. Today we celebrate you: a hero whose courage never goes out of style!
