Colonel Voorhees

          My Uncle Jay is a very special person.  If you did not know he has been in the army for 23 years also he is a Colonel.  I am very excited because he is stationed in Ansbach, Germany. It is amazing he is now Commander of 12^th Combat Aviation Brigade.  That is the largest aviation brigade in the army.  The reason I chose to write about him is because he is  very patriotic and has God in his heart.  Do you know who his first meeting was with as the new commander this morning?  The chaplen, to pray! It is crazy of how much of a burden he is taking on.  But he can do it. He is just a classic example of what happens when you work extremely hard at something for 23 years.  We were just at his change of command and it was a very cool ceremony. I have attached some photos down below. Thanks Uncle Jay for loving your country and being willing to serve and for being a great role model to me!
