Not a question or anything employment/career related. Rather, a minor celebration and remembrance for my brothers and sisters in arms in the Reserves/Guard who get discouraged when others call us "weekend warriors". Stay proud and never forget what we sacrifice when we do get called up to defend this nation.

I think they should have added Robert T Frederick to this, he was with the 45th IBCT and was an amazing leader and innovator for what would become the SF branch of the US Army. His bio is here http://americangreatness.org/soldiers-stories/major-general-robert-t-frederick/
