Updates from CPT Ashley


I would like to begin this newsletter by congratulating SPC Paul Valles and SGT Zettie Hall on their recent promotions to SGT and SSG. They have both demonstrated increased potential, the capacity for higher levels of responsibility, and are both invaluable assets to the Hurricane Team. SPC Murray also re-enlisted this past month, and I applaud her for her decision to continue to serve. We recently welcomed CPT Patrick O’Donnell to the

Company as the new Battalion S1. Pat has served honorably as a Bravo Company (Killer Spade) Platoon Leader these past nine months. He will bring a wealth of knowledge to the Company, and will serve the entire Battalion well in his new position of responsibility.

Since November our work load has remained steady, and the Soldiers continue to amaze me with their resilience to the daily monotony and their dedication to our Security and Stability mission here in Iraq. It is not easy working alongside people who you can’t help but run into in the shower, the CHU, the dining facility, work, the gym, the laundry mat, and the MWR building! We all may be tired, and ready for some fresh faces, but the friendships that have been established here will last a lifetime.
