Memorial Day 2024: All Gave Some, Some Gave All!

This Memorial Day 2024, Our Fallen, We honor!

I will always remember and honor my friends, my brothers with this post!

It is very hard being the soldier who returns home to a hero’s welcome when your battle buddy, comrade, friend, brother does not!  Warriors Walk, fallen soldiers, 3ID  (3RD Infantry Division), Fort Stewart, Georgia.

We the soldiers, leaders, active duty and retired, and our families from Alpha Company, 3/7th Infantry gathered at the Warriors Walk to remember our fallen Cottonbalers 2017.

Trees were planted along the Warriors Walk for each soldier KIA (killed in action) from the 3rd Infantry Division (3ID). 469 Trees lined the walk.

This is my tribute to those I served with, who didn’t come home.
