Once the vaccine was offered to my team at MCTP, I signed right up. Getting vaccinated was a huge relief and it allowed me to easily travel for work, spend face-to-face time with my team, and safely meet folks like @PatDonahoeArmy @TedMartin1775 & @stephdmartin and @MSNCMD_MAZ
Knowing my family has almost all been vaccinated is also a huge relief. My mom and (most of) my siblings and my niece and nephew, and my ex-husband too. I still worry about them all but this helps.
It’s also a huge relief to know that being vaccinated helps me reduce the spread of the virus. I was able to better focus on my work during the exercises compared to the earlier exercises when none of us were vaccinated yet. Even just that change made me much better at my job.
And now being vaccinated is making it easier for me to change jobs and move without that full added concern.

Could I still get it? Possibly.

But I haven’t gotten it yet and with the changes in my behavior since, I have no doubt the vaccine is to thank for that. #gettheshot 💉
Of course, if you can’t get vaccinated for some reason, that’s unfortunate. And it’s up to people like me to get vaccinated to help protect you. But everyone that can, I recommend it. Even just the peace of mind that comes with it can make a difference. #gettheshot 💉

Pixel Adventure Content™️

Got a booster seat with safety strap (like an adjustable seatbelt that clips onto his cushioned harness)

Now he can see out the windows easily. ImageImage
Lots of breaks…

Traveling with Pixel is a lot like traveling with a toddler — he gets fussy, he has to stretch, he has to tinkle, he’s thirsty or hungry, and he sleeps in between all that. ImageImageImageImage
I put towels in the bottom so he could reach the edge of the booster seat to rest his chin. ImageImage

My friends over at @18airbornecorps have been doing a great job sharing stories and history of the Battle of the Bulge. But I promised months ago that I would do a thread on the story of when Tanks saved the Jumpy Bois so...
This guy here is Albin Irzyk, who commanded the 8th Tank Battalion of 4th Armored Division at the time. Irzyk would lead the Third Army elements sent to relieve Bastogne and provide “motivation” for the Germans to back TF up.
Irzyk commissioned into the Cavalry in 1940, which used to be its own Branch but we’ll talk about that in a few weeks 🙂

He was from Massachusetts, like yours truly.

Wanna hear a bit about these guys? Good! Because you're gonna 😂
There’s a lot to this history, and we’re actually going to cover it quite a bit in a few weeks so let’s just focus on the 10th Armored Division for a minute because this is an important part of history that’s relevant to the Battle of the Bulge.
The 10th Armored Division was formed as part of our rapidly growing Armored Force during WWII. They were activated on 15 July 1942 at @FortBenning and placed under the command of Major General Paul Newgarden.
