Hello Warhawk Families,
In case you missed out on the HHC FRG meeting/social,
the following is a brief overview of what took place:
The event began with an informative discussion lead by
myself on the preparations that are underway regarding
integration of the 597th and HHC FRGs. The command
is working hard to ensure that the transition goes as
smoothly as possible. It is our hopes that the Soldiers and
Families of 597th will feel well received and are willing and ready to work together as
one united group.
Also, ideas concerning fundraisers and upcoming social activities were discussed. The
floor was open to any ideas, and we are will be more than happy to hear from any of
you concerning how we can raise money to support our Soldiers and Families as well
as how we can socialize together in a fun activity or social event. For example, the
theme of the August FRG meeting was a cookie swap. We had a few to participate in
this event and it consisted of baking your favorite recipe and sharing the delicious
goods and recipe with the rest of the group. Special thanks to Mrs. Blevins and Mrs.
Dickerson for their magnificent cookies.
Finally, I would like to just take a moment to thank all those who came out for the
very first time. It meant a great deal to me and the rest of the FRG, and I highly
encourage your continued participation. You are what make FRGs meaningful and
your thoughts, time, and ideas are greatly appreciated. To my Soldiers and families
who aren’t active participates, please support your FRG in anyway you can. It is a
great source of accurate information and resources, full of fun and interesting activities,
and a great way to build friendships and camaraderie with your Soldier’s organization.
If I can be of assistance to you or your family, please let me know.
~War Hawks!

Families of the 597th,
I hope that this finds you all doing well and not melting
from the heat. Rebecca and I look forward to seeing you
all in August for our FRG meeting. This month we will
be having a back to school cook out. We are looking at
several different locations. I will be sending out more
information as the date gets closer. This month has been
a busy one for the “Fast and Furious” Company. I want
you all to be aware of what will be taking place in the next 90 days. 597th Ordnance
Company will re-flag as the 597th Ordnance Detachment. We are beginning to discuss
with our leadership about how we work our FRG. My promise to you as that no
matter how the 597th’s FRG is managed you will not be left behind. The incoming
detachment Commander, CW3 Steve Hess knows the importance of the FRG and I
fully expect him to take care of the Soldiers of Families of this great organization.
I invite you all to take a look at the Fort Rucker MWR website to see what is available
to Soldiers and their Families. With school quickly approaching, I know that many of
you will be taking end of summer vacations. Please take the time to take a good look
at your vehicles. We do our best to ensure that your Soldier’s vehicle is well kept, but
I encourage you to ensure that your vehicles are in good working order prior to
departing on your vacation.
As the unit makes its transition to a detachment, my goal is to make it transparent to
you. If there is anything that Rebecca or I can do for you, please do not hesitate to call
or e-mail us. We are here for you.

Hello 164th TAOG Family!
“The Benefits of Faith and Faithfulness”
Several years ago while on an unaccompanied
assignment in the Republic of Korea, I had just returned to
Fort Sill, Oklahoma on leave, and two days later I received
a call from my brother. He informed me that our mother
was critically ill and that I needed to hurry home. The
entire Family loaded up in the car and started our travel
back south. Upon our arrival at the hospital, a nurse met
us in the hallway, and shared the news that my mother
passed away a few hours ago. After the funeral, I had to
prepare myself for a long 14 hour flight back to Korea. The only thing that kept me while
separated from my Family was my faith in God and remaining faithful to Him.
Adversity can knock at our door anytime, and most of the time it comes when we
least expect it to happen. In Psalm 125:1, 5 the Psalmist captures what is believed to have
occurred to Nehemiah after captivity. He encountered all sorts of difficulty in his attempt
to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. In spite of all the challenges, he held on to his trust in
God and continued to be faithful in building the wall.
Furthermore, to keep moving under adversity requires faith in God. In verse 1, the
Psalmist declares, “Those who trust in the Lord is like Mount Zion which cannot be
shaken but endures forever.” Basically, when we place our faith in God we are like
Mount Zion, built on a rock. When the wind of hardship blows your way, you will be
able to stand by faith.
Finally, verse 5 reveals that faith will keep you hoping. In essence, when you feel
and see no relief insight, faith in God will allow you to wait and hold on until victory
comes. Regardless, of the attacks launched at you by others, the Creator is faithful in the
present and in the future. Therefore, keep your faith in God and remain faithful to Him
even in adverse situations. Then you will witness the benefits that God will bring to you.
Be Encouraged!
