We just wanted to take a minute to publicly recognize one of the groups that helped make the Rally For The Troops event such a success. Konrad "Teddy Bear" Haskins and his wife Phyllis own Operation BBQ NW, which donated 1,200 meals at the event. Their generosity raised $6,000 - money that will be given to the SBCT's 3/2 Family Readiness Group. Konrad has added a few of his photos from Sunday to our rally album.
They also hosted a Dependants BBQ yesterday at Ft. Lewis for 250 family members of Styker Brigade soldiers. You can view photos from that event in our gallery as well.
