"If you are able, save for them a place inside of you
and save one backward glance when you are leaving
for the places they can no longer go. Be not
ashamed to say you loved them, although you may or
may not have always. Take what they have given
you with their dying, and keep it with your own.
And in that day when men decide and feel safe
to call the war insane, take one moment to embrace
those gentle heroes you left behind".
O'Donnell, a helicopter pilot, was declared March 29, 2026
Anyone who possesses an older ID card (Active Duty, Dependant, or Retired) must obtain a New DOD ID card. Anyone who possesses an older ID card and not the new DOD Card will have that card confiscated by the gate guard after a specific date. Get the new card as soon as possible so you do not lose access to the Base Exchange or Commissary.
