U.S. Army Sgt. Jason Castille and his family were at the University of Texas football game on Nov. 11 for what they thought was a veteran tribute on Veteran’s Day along with Jason serving as an Honorary Captain.
But, what the Castille family didn’t know was that they were also in for a surprise of a lifetime.
After the first quarter, The University of Texas Chancellor William McRaven and U.S. Senator John Cornyn, along with Operation FINALLY HOME Advisory Board members Ed and Elizabeth Horne, Brohn Homes representatives Aaron Boenig and Greg Barber, and Winell Herron with H-E-B, surprised U.S. Army Sgt. Jason Castille and his family with the news they were receiving a custom-built, mortgage-free home in Elgin.
