Thank you so much for the approval. Son is due to ship out on Jan. 26, 2026 out of Sr. Louis to San Diego. Where would I find the 2026 Ship/Grad Dates? Also how do I find his unit/group.
Again Thank You. Happy New Years and Many Blessings 2026!

Our community got their county memorial up just in time for Veterans Day. This honors all Veterans in my county, Cumberland County, Toledo, IL. So neat to see my Vetern on the wall
My deepest condolences to you and your family Jenn Landreth
My thoughts & prayers are with you. I'm very sorry for the sudden loss of your father.
Thank you. It was quite a surprise for sure.
You're posts look great, Jenn Landreth
Thank you. I'm starting to get the hang of this :-)
Glad you found your way in!
