It was the people who made up the 92nd, the mechanics, cooks, avionics repairmen, the Flight engineers, pilots  and so many others that became our Hooker family, they made it great. We literally grew up together. We gave up more than people realize to be ready if our country needed us. That day ultimately came with action in Iraq and Afghanistan. 

​

We trained, lived, ate, flew, and slogged through the mud at Fort Lewis and the dust and heat in desert training camps together. It was a lifetime of experiences and friends who will forever be part of our lives. These are the soldiers who served.
