Every year, we bring together families of fallen military heroes for a week of healing, connection, and unforgettable moments at our Snowball Express annual event. ❤️❄️

Thanks to our incredible supporters, these families are reminded they are never alone, and that their heroes will never be forgotten. 💙
@MarioNawfal This makes absolutely no sense. California can't maintain their power grid now, Let alone having evs along with lawn Care equipment. they can't maintain their power grid now. Bless their hearts
@JeffYoungerShow How is this not child endangerment, neglect ,cruelty, & genital mutilation. A child's brain cannot comprehend the ramifications of their actions. The barbaric procedure they're going to perform is going to alter and potentially end your son's life. My heart breaks for you.
@TheRealGameGod I prefer short hair on dogs and these are my picks. Dogo Argentina, American Bulldog(not Pitties), Cane Corso, Boerboel, and Catahoula leopard dog.
@mtgreenee In 2016 my GA drivers license pulled up another person and I was told I had already voted. Took forever to verify my identity so I could actually vote.

Today is a day to honor all service members who are deployed or have been deployed in service to this country.
We recognize the sacrifices they make and their families make during deployments. We thank you for your strength and bravery, always!
During World War I, Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) played a crucial role. In 1942, the United States faced a severe pilot shortage, and leaders initiated an experimental program to train women to fly military aircraft. This allowed male pilots to be released for combat overseas. The group of female pilots became known as the Women Airforce Service Pilots or WASP for short.
Over 1,100 young women, all civilian volunteers, flew various military aircraft, including B-26 and B-29 bombers, as part of the WASP program. They undertook tasks such as ferrying new planes long distances, testing overhauled aircraft, and towing targets for ground and air gunner training with live ammunition.
In total, they covered over 60 million miles, transported every type of military aircraft, towed targets for live anti-aircraft gun practice, simulated strafing missions, and transported cargo. Tragically, thirty-eight WASP members lost their lives, and one disappeared while on a ferry mission, with her fate remaining unknown as of 2019.
In recognition of their World War II service, the members were granted veteran status in 1977. Additionally, in 2009, President Obama awarded them the Congressional Gold Medal.
