Happy Holidays to you and yours!

The holidays are upon us, whether we’re ready or not! The CGSC classes let out last Friday and the students won’t return until January 3. I was in the food court today as instructors discussed their final grading requirements before they too head out for some well-deserved time off. It’s pretty quiet around here as everyone prepares in their own special way for the holidays.

While this place is quiet, let us not forget the many dedicated Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines as well as first responders of many nations on duty throughout the world in the hopes of bringing peace and stability into these rather troubled times. I would ask your prayers for them, their families, and their safety.

My hope is that you get the chance to take some time to be with family and enjoy your many blessings. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanza, or other observance, our wish for you is health and happiness at this special time of the year.

We also wish you all the best in the coming year. The Foundation is looking forward to another busy year promoting our mission to support the development of military leaders of character and competence for service to the nation. We couldn’t do this without the support of you, our donors, our volunteers, and our stakeholders, thank you.

So, on behalf of our Board of Trustees and the staff, I wish you all happiness in the holiday season!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
