FOX 5 Part Two

Here is the link for part two of the FOX 5 Vegas series. They did an outstanding job, especially pointing out that we are not going to shoot our way out of this war, but BUILD our way out! http://www.fox5vegas.com/video/19727052/

"Band of Brothers"


National guard units are pretty unique in that they are very regimented compared to active duty units. This is highly reflected by the troopers of the Wildhorse Squadron in that we have nine sets of brothers currently serving in the unit! Not many other units can boast that.....We truly are a "Band of Brothers". Thanks again to Jason Bean and Keith Rogers for their continued support.
