On November 23 of last year, we lost a man very dear to our hearts. A model son and brother, as well as a natural born leader and pilot, the passing of 1LT James Garvey is still fresh in our hearts and we miss him every day. As a small token of honoring such a tremendous soldier, our friends over at Herald Embroidery in Oak Grove have made an amazing patch to aid in memorializing the aviator, the patriot, the friend we all know and love. The patches are just as pictured, and measure 3.25"x1.875" (standard flag size). They'll go great on anything Velcro®- hats, jackets, bags, you name it. Each patch will cost only $10 each; a small amount of that will go towards shipping, and the rest of the proceeds will benefit the 1LT James Garvey Memorial Scholarship Fund, which awards an annual scholarship to participants in the University of Connecticut Army Reserve Officer Training Corp (ROTC) program. The Garvey Scholarship recognizes future Army officers who exhibit the traits of leadership, commitment, camaraderie, persistence and a passionate interest in world affairs--just as James himself did. Help us honor James' memory, and getting the future leaders of our Army off on the right foot at the same time. Thank you, and God bless!
