Eleven pax dedication to post on New Year’s Day was rewarded with 70 degree temperature which has the frogs out singing like spring time. We were blessed with an FNG who was Sweet Peas father in law. This pax, henceforth to be known as Green Giant, made his first post at 67 years of age–WOW!

We kicked of the new year with a HeroWOD named for Zachary D. Tellier, 31, of Charlotte. He was a combat infantryman with the 4th Squadron, 73rd Cavalry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, at Fort Bragg. He died Sept. 29, 2007 of wounds sustained while on a ground patrol in Afghanistan. The previous April, Tellier’s unit was conducting a mounted patrol when one of its vehicles drove over and detonated a bomb, which set the vehicle on fire, according to a statement from the 82nd Airborne. Tellier pulled two paratroopers out of the vehicle to safety, suffering severe burns to his hands. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with valor for his actions.
