His unit, C Company, 3rd Brigade Special Troops Battalion Mountain Division (Light Infantry) is stationed in Afghanistan. We are very proud to know Randy.
In August 2009, members of the club assembled handmade Halloween cards for Randy’s unit

to keep them in touch with home. In Sepember the members handmade Thanksgiving cards for
Randy's unit. See volunteers at work!
Update: Randy's Company is now coming home. He quotes: "Our single soldiers come home to an empty barracks room that resembles a college dorm before move in day.We try to get toiletries and sheets for them; my First Sergeant and FRSA (Family Readiness Support Advisor) are the best to give you advice on how to help with this issue." At the November meeting the Club collected over $400 for the FRSA people to buy these items (it is cheaper than trying to mail the items). Donations by cash or checks made payable to HHC FRG are always welcomed.
