Veteran’s Day- Honoring all those who served. Thank you for your service!

“We remember those who were called upon to give all a person can give, and we remember those who were prepared to make that sacrifice if it were demanded of them in the line of duty, though it never was. Most of all, we remember the devotion and gallantry with which all of them ennobled their nation as they became champions of a noble cause.” — Ronald Reagan

Fort Detrick- Sustain – Support – Defend!!

Congrats to “I Killed” raffle book winners: Robin Hartmann and James Walker!!

Hey Fort Detrick you were awesome today!!!  I finished up my stay in Maryland with 2 shows at Fort Detrick.  Thank you to all soldiers and civilians who came to the Fort Detrick Auditorium.  I’m glad we all had a few laughs and hopefully left you with some valuable insight and tools on resiliency!  USAG Fort Detrick provides sustainable base operations support, quality of life programs, and environmental stewardship to facilitate the sustainment of vital national interests.  It also supports five cabinet-level agencies: The Department of Defense, Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Agriculture, Department of Homeland Security and Department of Health and Human Services.  Thanks again to the ASAP department for bringing me here.  Photo courtesy of Heather McNany and Sheri Schaefer;)
