I thought you might appreciate seeing this. The Army's Training Center gym was renamed in honor of Aaron Blanchard, a former Hunt-Washington member who died serving his country. :salute:
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Never met him, but as for his sacrifice I am forever grateful!

Semiper Fi!

I never met Aaron but he made a greater impact on people’s lives the he ever thought or would know.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

RIP, brother. Never forget. Nice tribute.
