My sister's son, Mitchell, had his Washington National Guard unit activated yesterday and leaves tomorrow for Mississippi for three months. He has been told he'll be in Iraq in three months.

Your article reminds us of the skill these men have and the sacrifice and risk they take. Mitch is a medic and he is still a teenager.

God bless these men and women.

Great story! The mechanics kept us mission ready day in and day out. We salvaged everything we could from any vehicle we had. The gearheads kept us rolling regardless of the supply chain issues.
