When Chris Harris was killed in Afghanistan, August 2017, his wife Brit was pregnant. The entire 82nd Airborne rallied around Britt and baby Christian Michelle, born March 17, 2018. Christian Michelle has Daddy's eyes and today we honor her, her Mom, and her Dad. #MemorialDay2021

@therealN8Fair @1stBN_325thCDR @2BCT_FALCONS @RedFalcon_9 One of the best PT sessions I did with your platoon. Thanks for continuing to share our Airborne legacy and the stories of the heroes that came before us. #paratrooperforlife

Nineteen American Soldiers were killed in the Battle of Mogadishu in October 1993. Two of those who made the ultimate sacrifice posthumously received the Medal of Honor for their heroism. Today we commemorate the lives of all of those Americans killed in Operation Gothic Serpent.

@JohnTOCradio And waiting to get it right. “Truthiness” (a Colbert word of the day) is a American virtue and one of the biggest inhibitors to us competing in the information space...the decisive domain. Speed matters.

82 degrees and sunny during the ceremony—an awesome Airborne day to farewell an outstanding Commander of Bandit Company. @jacobs_brian82, thank you for your service and commitment to our paratroopers and families. You’ll be missed and good luck! @1_325thAIR @1stBN_325thCDR

[Brian Jacobs @jacobs_brian82]

What an incredible honor and privilege to be able to serve the Paratroopers of Bandit Company over the last 12 months! @H_Tippett I look forward to watching you take @Bravo_1_325AIR to new heights. @1_325thAIR https://t.co/KZwveoIFlc

SGT Foley sets the example of what it means to be an Airborne leader. As a squad leader, wouldn’t you want to be the last one to check your paratrooper’s equipment before they exit the aircraft? @1stBN_325thCDR @RedFalcon_9 @1_325thAIR

B Co Paratroopers training to be brilliant in the basics, preparing for the @82ndABNDiv upcoming EIB/ESB. @1_325thAIR @1stBN_325thCDR

[Brian Jacobs @jacobs_brian82]

Nothing better than being able to retain the best junior leaders for continued service in our #USArmy! CPL Gonzales re-enlisted to join the @25thID in Hawaii. Thanks to @1stBN_325thCDR for administering the oath!

A well timed follow up to last weeks LPD! https://t.co/yzrg4MQf1Y

We're excited to announce ANOTHER distributed leader development session, this time with @peterwsinger, author of Ghost Fleet and LikeWar. Click the link for more info https://t.co/NsCM1DUVvW

[Brian Jacobs @jacobs_brian82]

Had a great LPD with the team on #LikeWar! Started with a friendly PT competition and ended with discussion of All-Domain Operations at the tactical level. Important to understand how the speed of information operations has changed the nature of war. @peterwsinger @1_325thAIR

Congratulations to my brother-in-law on his virtual commissioning as a 2LT in the #USArmy #Engineers!!!@WestPoint_USMA @Commandant_USMA

Instead of a rotating cast of advisers, partner forces would team with American advisers for six to nine months advising in person, followed by regular video check-ins. https://t.co/AmQubUQowA

Congratulations to SGT Ryan Wollrath on being this week’s Bandit Paratrooper is the Week! As the training room NCO, SGT Wollrath helped build and check 142 packets for the upcoming EIB. Awesome work supporting the whole TF Red Talon Team! @1stBN_325thCDR @RedFalcon_9 @1_325thAIR

@KevinMott4 @alexbridgeforth We give our NCOs the freedom to start and end PT earlier to secure gym or pool space or in the rare case they are tasked before 0900.

[Brian Jacobs @jacobs_brian82]

@KevinMott4 @alexbridgeforth Flexible PT wouldn’t work as a regular policy because 0630-0800 is the only time protected (to an extent) from external taskings. It has been effective during COVID restrictions because all taskings fell off.

Army leaders share with Secretary of Defense Mark Esper the view that the new normal spawned by coronavirus will be with America’s military for some time to come. https://t.co/lfFVuE2v1W

Today Red Falcon Paratroopers honored the service, life, and sacrifice of SFC Brown and CPL McCants by conducting a Hero WOD. Their memory serves as reminder of the relentless pursuit of excellence and the sacrifice so many before us have made. #letsgo #AATW #AlwaysRemember
