CSM Schroeder and I wanted to send a note to thank you for the support you provided to our Army Families and Soldiers here at Fort Campbell. Most of our Soldiers have returned from deployment, but many remain in harm’s way. We thank you in advance for the world-class support you and the communities surrounding Fort Campbell continue to provide them and their Families.
We have continuously been impressed with the level of support between Fort Campbell and the great surrounding communities including Clarksville, Hopkinsville, Oak Grove, and other areas in Middle Tennessee and Western Kentucky. Each of your communities does so much for our Soldiers and our Families which makes Fort Campbell such a desirable duty assignment for so many military Families. Upon our return from deployment, we felt we were truly coming home.
This Memorial Day, as we honor and remember those who have fallen, we also should remember and honor those who have toiled and sacrificed in our absence. Those whose loved one has returned a Fallen Hero deserve a special honor just as their Fallen Hero deserves. All Americans owe an enormous debt of gratitude to those who have sacrificed and especially to the Families who have lost loved ones.We ask you to pray for those Soldiers who are still in deployed and their Families. Thank you again for all that you do – we are forever grateful for your love and support.
AIR ASSAULT! ARMY STRONG!
Sincerely,
Scott C. Schroeder Command Sergeant Major, USA Division Commander Sergeant Major |
