Soldiers Reunite

Sep-17-2008 » Filed Under: 1/25 SBCT

The Daily News has a nice profile of two childhood friends who are now both LTs with the 1/25 SBCT, which is set to deploy to Iraq. Excerpt:

Drew Holt, 23, and Drew Maney, 24, have a lot in common. In addition to sharing a first name, the Shalimar natives attended the same schools, played soccer on the same team and shared the same dream of joining the Army.

After graduating from Choctawhatchee High School one year apart, the longtime friends didn't see much of each other. But that all changed last March.

First Lt. Maney and 2nd Lt. Holt found themselves in the same brigade as part of the 25th Infantry Division at Fort Wainwright, Alaska.
