Good Morning HHB Families,
I want to say first Welcome Home Ruff Ryders. I know you have been home for 2 weeks now, but I want to let you know that we did not forget you. Also would like to let SSG Reynolds, SPC Everroad, MAJ Bucy, SGT Perkins, SPC Crain, and SFC Geiselman know that we are thinking of you while you are deployed during this holiday season.
MSG Arnold and SPC Sambrotta are HOME! We were just informed last week that these soldiers returned home November 12th. We are sorry that we missed their homecoming, but are thrilled to have them home.
