Letters from Your Soldiers
Thank you from Djibouti Africa! We received your care package yesterday. We absolutely love the snacks and sweet treats. The letters were also a major morale boost. We all appreciate the support and all the goodies. We are 24/7 ops and these mean more than can be articulated in emails. God bless.

Arlington, Virginia. (May 22, 2025): In this photo by Elizabeth Fraser, a Soldier from the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) places flags at gravesites at Arlington National Cemetery for Memorial Day. Nearly 1,500 troopers placed over 260,000 American flags over the headstones of the fallen during the 77th annual “Flags In” ceremony.
To most Americans, Arlington National Cemetery is a symbol of our commitment to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice, but it did not start out that way. In fact, the land that would become the world’s most famous graveyard was originally in “enemy” hands. The property was originally owned by George Washington Parke Custis, the step-grandson of Washington himself. His daughter married then Union Army 1st Lieutenant Robert E. Lee (yes, that Lee) who later led the Confederate States Army in the Civil War. Federal forces seized the property when the owner failed to pay property taxes, and the government declared Arlington a national cemetery.

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.
