Yesterday, as we celebrated Women Veterans Day, I had the honor and privilege to watch my Army sister, LTC Candace J Hill, take Battalion Command of 1-44 ADA Battalion. The battalion I had the honor to deploy with. I got to reconnect with a former Soldier who became a great 1SG and is getting ready to retire. I got to reflect on my year in command as the 1st Female VFW Commander in Lampasas and how I am honored to have been reelected.

Yesterday was a great day to be an Air Defender and a Woman Veteran!!!
