Our Hero

For Fred, today marks 8 years of sacrifice and service to our Country! In those 8 years he's accomplished more then most do in an entire career! He started out just a lowly private, but with drive and the determination to always make life better for myself & our kids, he's overcome not only life changing injuries but having been told he was "no longer fit" to be in the Army!

Today he is making us proud as Chief Warrant Officer White. Piloting Blackhawks as well as taking on the role of Battalion S6! [Just imagine being thrown into the head IT guys job without any prior training] He's served 2 deployments with [I'm sure] many more to come!

Because of his career we've had the opportunity to travel the country, shake hands with the President and make amazing friendships that have lasted over many miles! I am eternally grateful for my husbands dedication to this family and his country.
