Ft. Bragg, June 10, 2025 – Yesterday, we had the honor of witnessing the Commander in Chief, President Donald Trump, visit Fort Bragg as part of the Army’s 250th birthday celebration. His presence was a reminder of the strength, resilience, and dedication of our service members - past and present.
As a soldier and a proud military wife, I know firsthand the sacrifices made by our military families. Let this moment inspire us to continue standing strong, supporting one another, and ensuring that every airman, soldier, and spouse feels valued. Together, we uphold the legacy of service and commitment that defines our armed forces. Let’s keep pushing forward, lifting each other up, and honoring the mission we serve!
I just wanted to share this because moments like these remind us why we do what we do—supporting and uplifting those who serve. Leadership, unity, and dedication are what drive us forward, and this visit was a powerful reflection of that.

Fort Stewart, Georgia. (June 12, 2025): Amongst themselves, Army Soldiers call each other “Dogface” as a term of endearment. The nickname can be seen as an insult, however, when used by other branches of the military. In this photo by Specialist Luciano Alcala, Soldiers install a support frame for a new Rocky the Bulldog statue at Fort Stewart. Rocky is the 3rd Infantry Division's mascot and serves as a tribute to the enduring legacy of the Dogface Soldiers.
"Dogface soldiers" is a nickname given to Army infantrymen during World War II and is most identified with the 3rd Infantry Division, known as the "Marne Division".
The term first appeared in print at least as early as 1935 due to Soldiers wearing “dog tags” and sleeping in “pup” tents. Still others claim the troops came up with the moniker explaining “an infantrymen lives a dog’s life, when they want us, they whistle, and we obey.”

PENTAGON, (March 25, 2025): Service members assigned to Joint Task Force Southern Border have a new directive: conduct patrols.
Until now, the U.S. military mission at the southern border has been static. Service members have been engaged mostly in stationary detection and monitoring activities. But no longer.
On March 20, 2025, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order allowing service members involved in the mission to do more and conduct their mission on foot or on board Stryker armored vehicles.
