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.

Louisville, Kentucky. (May 5, 2024): For the first time in history, spectators at the Kentucky Derby were treated to a sizzling performance by the Army’s 1st Infantry Division's Commanding General's Mounted Color Guard.

The Kentucky Derby, also known as "The Run for the Roses," is held annually on the first Saturday in May. It is one of the oldest and culturally significant sports events in American history. Meriwether Lewis Clark Jr., grandson of William Clark (of the Lewis and Clark expedition), is credited with founding the Louisville Jockey Club and Churchill Downs racetrack, where the Derby is held.

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.
