Ft. Campbell

I'm starting to get a feel for my beat area. I've been covering the 101st Airborne in Ft. Campbell, Kentucky. Since I'm new to the beat I've been trying to make contacts and meet people in the area. Tomorrow is a big day on post! The 4th BCT (brigade combat team) is becoming the 506th which was made popular from the book Band of Brothers. The book was about Easy Company of the 506th infantry. The soldiers feel it is a big honor and responsibility to take on. The 506th has produced a lot of heroes in the past. I'm looking forward to being there for the ceremony.
