Check Out the Special 'Lone Survivor' Uniforms Texas Tech Will Wear to Honor Slain Navy SEALS, Marcus Luttrell and His Foundation
October 28, 2013
"Never Quit"
Texas Tech unveiled its good-looking "Lone Survivor" football uniforms on Monday, which the team will wear against Kansas State on Nov. 9 to honor slain Navy SEALS, Marcus Luttrell and his Lone Survivor Foundation.
Readers of TheBlaze are likely familiar with Luttrell's story and the former Navy SEAL's nonprofit he created after the release of his 2007 book "Lone Survivor." The book tells Luttrell's incredible story of survival and provides a sneak peak into the horrors of war during "Operation Redwing" in Afghanistan, where 19 members of Navy SEAL Team 10 were killed.
The helmet features the number "19" in honor of the slain Navy SEALS and wings similar to those found in the Lone Survivor Foundation's official logo. Further, the words "Never Quit" appear on the sleeves and helmet.
After Tech's game against Kansas State, the jerseys will reportedly be auctioned off and the proceeds will go to the Lone Survivor Foundation, Yahoo! Sports reports.
