RE: TX and SF

The roots of patriotism and military service--active, guard, reserve, state guard-- run deep here in the former Republic of Texas. Reps of SFA CH XXXl attend the funeral of every SF brother of Texas ancestry returned for burial in North Texas soil. Kelly Hornbeck (10 SFG), Eric Caban (7 SFG), and William Brown and Justin Monschke (3 SFG) are all interred here in the North Texas area.

All were attended by an SF GO and the ODAs conducting the burial details were outstanding.

The news media aound here tend to place a different slant on their reporting than those along the lines of the Pravda on the Hudson (NYT).
