Founder of Trek to the Troops Chris Mulrooney, has been called up with the rest of his military unit to give protection, aid and comfort to the Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita victims.
Chris, a member of the 1404th Transportation Company out of the State of Arizona has already served his country in the Iraq War. Now he and his unit will be down in Louisana and Texas for at least 6 weeks, maybe longer depending on the extent of damage wrought by this latest natural disaster.
The Arizona National Guard will be offering up an official press release very soon, but Chris wanted to get the word out so all our troops who look to his site for updates will understand the delay.
As soon as he can, Chris promises to update his site on the relief effort and post pictures of the good work our troops are doing down in those ravaged areas on the Gulf Coast.
Our wishes for safety go out to Chris and all the young men and women who are called upon in this valiant effort to save and protect our fellow citizens and their property.
