Welcome Home!
After a long and challenging three-month deployment, the heroes of the 934th Airlift Wing have returned home to Minnesota! The emotional reunion of military families warmed our hearts and reminded us of the incredible sacrifices they have made. From missed holidays to important milestones, they have dedicated themselves to serving our nation, and now it's their turn to savor every moment.
We want to express our deepest gratitude to the brave men and women of the 934th Airlift Wing and their incredible families for their unwavering sacrifice. Your commitment to duty and service is an inspiration to us all. Let's give a big round of applause and a heartfelt "welcome home" to our Air Force Reserve #ReserveCitizenAirmen! Your dedication and hard work have not gone unnoticed. Job well done!
We are proud to have you back in Minnesota. Your strength, courage, and resilience continue to inspire us.
THE WALL THAT HEALS
The Wall That Heals is coming to town! This powerful exhibit is a three-quarter scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington D.C., and it's traveling to Saint Thomas Academy in Mendota Heights, MN from May 26-29.
This program, hosted by the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund founders of the wall, is a mobile education center that honors the service and sacrifice of the men and women who served during the Vietnam War.
Visitors will have the opportunity to view the more than 58,000 names of the service members who made the ultimate sacrifice. The exhibit is open to the public, with free admission, and is open 24 hours a day until it closes at 2 PM on Monday.
This is a must-see event for anyone who wants to pay their respects and learn more about the history of the Vietnam War. Don't miss it!

We received a request from Joe, a veteran of the MN National Guard, and local St. Paul resident. He is currently in school and needed a functional computer. The St. Paul BYR worked with him on the type he needed and was able to purchase it for him.
