First Army Honors Staff Sgt. Waverly Woodson. #WaverlyWoodson

[FirstArmy @FirstArmy]

Our command team recently began their day in Arlington National Cemetery, paying their respects to SSG Waverly Woodson. (1/12) #WaverlyWoodson https://t.co/aIMZISMZro

When I talk about the 103-year history of First Army I say, “We stand on the shoulders of giants.” Waverly Woodson, who faithfully served an Army that didn’t fully accept or honor him, may rise above them all. #WaverlyWoodson @FirstArmy @FORSCOM

On this day 77 years ago, First Army commanded all American ground and Airborne forces at Normandy. This photo speaks volumes about the bravery and valor displayed that day. We stand on the shoulders of giants! #DDay77 @FirstArmy

President Calvin Coolidge said the nation which forgets its defenders will itself be forgotten. This weekend I remember CPL Bryant Luxmore and all who have laid down their lives for our great nation.

On Veterans Day 2020, we at First Army honor a fearless young Soldier who refused to move, who changed the nation by making a stand, who fought a painful and personal war right here at home. Known as "the Army's Rosa Parks," PFC Sarah Keys inspires us to "Earn the A."

[FirstArmy @FirstArmy]

You know the story of Rosa Parks, but do you know the story of Sarah Keys? On this #VeteransDay2020 , we present the story of a First Army Soldier who inspires us. [1/7] #PeopleMissionHistory

@DogFaceSoldier Great leader! Taught me a lot when I was the C3!

[Tom James @Thomas_S_James]

On this Gold Star Mother's Day, I remember all the mothers - and the warriors they loved - who have deeply touched my heart. These women show our nation the power of grace in grief. Their children - selfless, patriotic and brave - were the very best of our nation.

Happy 102nd birthday @FirstArmy. Established as America entered the First World War, securing Allied victory despite Spanish Influenza. Today, amid another global pandemic, enabling America’s Total Force. FIRST IN DEED!

[Tom James @Thomas_S_James]

Happy 75th Anniversary to our First Army friend Henry Langrehr and his bride Arlene. This paratrooper jumped into France on D-Day, fought through the hedgerows, suffered as a POW -- then came home to marry the love of his life. A picture worth 1,000 words.

Honored to remember those that gave all for our freedom and their Families for whom everyday is Memorial Day! #MemorialDay #FORSCOM @FirstArmy @CSM_1FirstArmy

[FirstArmy @FirstArmy]

Although we can't be together in large gatherings this #MemorialDay, we will still #Honorthem. Watch as our Commanding General narrates the story of Cpl. Frederick Baraks, who was killed in action in the closing days of World War II. https://t.co/pyHsvmEm4A

Great week w/ the @FORSCOM CG. Before our Mission Readiness Brief, we crushed it in the First Army Trench! @FirstArmy @CSM_1A @GeneralMXG #FirstInDeed #FitForTheRigors

[Tom James @Thomas_S_James]

Victory in Europe came 75 years ago today. We celebrated the end of Nazi tyranny and the triumph of freedom. But it came at extraordinary cost, and remembering that victory today must be tempered with remembering all who gave lives for our future. #VE75 #VEDay75 @FORSCOM
