I just wanted to post my husband's obituary. All are welcome. It will be in Wilson, NC with military honors. Family will be escorted by the Patriot Guard. Yes, we know about the typo but we left it for his weird Army humor. We all got a good smile out of it

Hey former Sabers! This is CPL Wiggins. I just wanted to let you all know that my husband, SGT James passed away on Monday evening and i am not sure as to the cause of death yet but I was right by his side trying to save him. He was not in our unit but he drilled with us a few times and came to our unit a lot. A lot of you may remember him. You guys were family to me. I am planning his funeral for Monday but will find out for sure later. His unit Memorial will be on Saturday, 14 May at the Army Reserve Center in Knightdale, NC. If you all would come, I would really love to have you all there if you are able. I need to be surrounded by my Army family as well. Thank you all so much. I will keep you all updated

I sure miss my Saber family! I pray 2022 is treating you right!

The FRG team held decorating contest snowmen & Christmas trees & marshmallow eating contest. We also had some soldiers receive the humanitarian service award for state active duty..
We wish you all a blessed and wonderful holiday season be safe and be thankful for what you have

Sabers looks SPC Chamblee is now SGT!!!!

Some AT 19 highlights from Yermo as we conducted rail download operations. Reunited with some former sabers. Great experience, successful mission!!!! It's sad to think this will be the last AT we do as a unit.

As we come to end of yet another Annual Training, it is with great joy to share it was a success. We had a mission, though hurdles to jump in the beginning we made it through. I couldnt be more proud of this unit for adaparing to so many changes, the heat, the task and leaders outside of the unit guiding them. Though there was a lot of risk, we did it safely resulting in everyone going home the same way we arrived.
