FUNDRAISER:
409th fundraiser!
https://fundrazr.com/c2Ogqb
"I will be doing a fundraiser for the 409th that will focus on two areas
of support, the drone team and training. The battalion is deployed in
the East and doing some great work. A former colleague of mine from the
131st has been sharing a lot of his experience with the drone team.
After speaking to my friend and the commander of the battalion, I now
have a list of equipment that will be transformative for the entire
battalion. These civilian/ commercially bought items include Alientech
receivers, antenna and cabling. I'm particularly keen to include
training aids for the battalion. Thank you all for the support and best
wishes over the last few months. I may be home at the moment, but my
heart is in Ukraine."
