Air Defense Artillery became a separate branch of the Army in 1968 with branch heritage dating back to the artillery, coast artillery, and the anti-aircraft artillery units that defended America since 1775. Today, the branch celebrates 57 years! Happy birthday, ADA! #FirstToFire

@USArmy My dad was a Tank Commander back in the day. I was a Patriot Crewmember. Proud that my family has been part of the Army’s soon to be 250 year history. #GoArmy #FirstToFire

On Jan. 16, 1991, #OperationDesertStorm began. Fort Sill stood ready to train and build artillery Soldiers to ensure the U.S. could deter, fight and win on any battlefield. Today, we remember all those who answered the call to service! #TeamSill #KingOFBattle #FirstToFire

Calm down my little air track. Remember, you all look the same on the scope, but as long as you stay in your corridor, I won't be forced to de-louse. #GoArmyBeatNavy #FirsttoFire

Having a blue check mark doesn’t make me better than you. Being a Naval Aviator does that. Beat Army!🤠

Picked up some more #delta17 figures at Joefest and a really cool 1/12 Stinger Missile. Had to get the Stinger as that was my MOS for quite a while! #FirstToFire

Our latest system gets a name, and it's perfect. Welcome, SGT Stout! #AirDefenseArtillery #FirsttoFire

M-SHORAD Increment 1 has a new name! The @usarmy announced that its Maneuver Short Range Air Defense capability will be called the Sgt Stout, in honor of Mitchell W. Stout, who was killed in action while shielding his fellow Soldiers from a grenade in Vietnam. He is the only Air Defender ever to earn the Medal of Honor. The Sgt Stout M-SHORAD system integrates air defense capabilities onto a Stryker A1 armored vehicle. It is designed to defeat uncrewed aerial systems and fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft. We’re proud to deliver the Sgt Stout! #Hooah #InnovationMode #ArmyBday

As we reflect and remember those that have gone before us, I'd also like to thank those who are with me now as we go back down range. #IStrike #MemorialDay #FirsttoFire
