We talked to those who were in Kabul during the evacuation. Their perspective deserves to be heard, especially today. https://lnkd.in/eC5Uuht6

Three years ago today, American service members enduring some of the most unimaginable conditions of the entire GWOT during our chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan, were attacked at Kabul Airport’s Abbey Gate. 13 of our best were killed, including 11 Marines, one sailor, and one soldier.

“The only way I knew how to help was by training a service dog…” At Black Rifle Coffee Company we know first-hand how much a dog can mean to a veteran. That's why we’re proud to highlight the work The Rescue 22 Foundation is doing for the community. They are committed to addressing the mental and physical health of our nation’s veterans with service-connected disabilities. With a shared passion for aiding veterans, they specialize in providing service dogs to those with medically complex cases. Their mission is clear: to offer veterans the extra care and support they need, ultimately working towards enhancing the quality of life within the veteran community.

Today is Purple Heart Day, and there’s no better way to commemorate the day than remembering an American hero who earned 10 Purple Heart medals while fighting in two back-to-back wars. Maj. William Gail White, otherwise known as the “Mad Major” was a bullet and shrapnel magnet. His first two Purple Heart’s came on a single day in 1944: A round fired from a German soldier’s MP40 penetrated his chest, wounding him but he survived. Then a grenade’s shrapnel peppered his forehead for his second injury. In four days of combat later that month, he was wounded six times. In Luxembourg he received his seventh Purple Heart from yet another grenade blast. When he wasn’t getting shot up or blown to bits, White earned himself two Silver Star awards, his first for charging and wiping out a machine gun nest. On Dec. 10, 1944, White earned his second Silver Star — an action from which he almost didn’t returned home. While his battalion consisting of 15 soldiers attacked the German town of Strass, White personally killed three enemy machine guns and their crews. He then destroyed two Mark IV tanks, two self-propelled guns, 19 infantry soldiers, and captured 31 prisoners of war. During the battle, he was critically wounded after a German machine gun stitched his stomach with bullets. White fearlessly led his men for the next seven hours until allied armor reinforcements arrived. Before the war ended, he was struck by shell fragments near the Elbe River in Germany, giving him his ninth Purple Heart. The “Mad Major” later served during the Korean War and was shot and wounded for the 10th time. 10 Purple Hearts are the most awards given to a single recipient, a record nobody wants to beat. Black Rifle Coffee salutes the Mad Major, and all those who have earned the Purple Heart both past and present by sacrificing their body on behalf of our great nation. 🇺🇸

It’s been 13 years since Extortion 17 was shot down in Afghanistan. 30 American military servicemen and a U.S. military dog were among those killed. This was the single greatest loss of life in the Naval Special Warfare community since 2001. Never forget.

We heard the volunteer firefighters were under-caffeinated as they battle wildfires near Juliaetta, Idaho. So we sent Ed Hafer up there with a few pallets of RTDs. This is what it’s all about—Black Rifle Coffee serves those who serve!
