#SaturdayRead We are honoring/remembering Chuck Norris today who, an Air Force #Veteran, passed away March 19 at the age of 86. Just about everyone knew him as Walker, Texas Ranger as well as for his exceptional martial arts skills. He remained committed to supporting the troops throughout his life and advocating for Veterans. Here are a few articles about his life and his service. #RIP Veteran Norris. #VeteranoftheDay 1) ow.ly/etHN50YxgVq 2) ow.ly/CZ0v50YxgVr 3) ow.ly/BSIR50YxgVv

#SaturdayRead Tonight's the night (Sat., March 7) to set our clocks FORWARD 1 hour to start Daylight Saving Time (DST). When did it all start? Here's some history for you. DST, suggested by President Roosevelt, was imposed to conserve fuel and could be traced back to World War I, when Congress imposed one standard time on the United States to enable the country to better utilize resources. It was called the 1918 Standard Time Act. Not to give away anything more, you'll have to read about it here: ow.ly/ozZL50YqOgH

#SaturdayRead On this last day of February and Black History Month (BHM). sharing a #DYK moment in recognition of BHM – In the last two years of the Civil War, African American soldiers and sailors saw action in 39 major engagements and earned 26 Medals of Honor for their bravery in battle. After the war, Black Veterans often struggled to obtain benefits from the Federal Government, but thousands persevered and received compensation for their service-related wounds or medical problems.

#SaturdayRead Naval officer and Apollo 13 astronaut Jim Lovell has passed at 97. One of the phrases he was known for was “Houston, we have a problem”. In addition to Apollo 13, the naval aviator flew on three other NASA spacecraft missions. #RIP 🇺🇸ow.ly/shJO50WCsgCQAP
