Jessi Wege took the following video of her brother, Josh, on Sunday, Oct. 18, 2009 before the Wege family headed back to Wisconsin from visiting him at Bethesda Naval Hospital.
WBAY Channel 2 (Green Bay, WI) ran a fourth (?) story on Josh on the 10 PM news last night and used Jessi's footage and other pictures of Josh. "Marine Sends Message to Hometown"
