Today I was going through military times. As I scrolled through the names, and stories of the men and women who have come before me, I came across Samuel C. Hairston. He was embodied the Soldiers Creed, and Army Values. I am grateful for his Service. To his Family: I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers go out to you tonight. Sergeant...You will not be Forgotten.
