“Wow” is all we can say…
An Army veteran from Fayetteville won a quarter million dollars in the Georgia Lottery days before his return to Afghanistan.
Gregg Curry, a father of three and a master sergeant with the Third U.S. Army Forces Central Command, bought a winning Cool Cash ticket while stopping to buy a bottle of water with his wife, Mary, lottery officials said Friday.
Curry, 47, returns to Afghanistan Monday. He was home for two weeks from Bagram Airfield, where he’s been stationed for seven months. He’ll be in Afghanistan another five months.
He told lottery officials that he plans to use his $250,000 to pay bills and take a vacation after his tour.
What a helluva going away present! We appreciate your work to keep our country safe Mr. Curry, be careful over there so you can come home and make it rain on your wife!
