I visited our injured National Guardsmen in the hospital today. My heart breaks for them, their families, and those impacted by the horrific attack in our Nation’s capital.

Every one of our National Guardsmen made a courageous decision to serve their community and their nation. They serve selflessly to safeguard our way of life.

Please keep our Guardsmen in your prayers.

I want to thank everyone that attended our 246 Reunion in Decatur this evening. I do hope that everyone had a good time and good eats. Once again, it was a unanimous vote to keep the Association Board the same for next year and to continue to hold these reunions as long as we can. Thank you again, to the committee, for a job well done. I appreciate you guys and gals so much. I hope to see everyone again on Oct 3, 2026. 😎👍
