Travis Mills | Statement On Afghanistan
Posted on by dmartignetti

We speak with Staff Sergeant Travis Mills from Travis Mills Foundation regarding his statement on Afghanistan

“To the veterans, active duty service members, their loved ones, Gold Star Families, and caregivers – please remember that our sacrifices were not in vain. We did our job and we need to be proud of that. Our service helped keep our families and our country safe for nearly two decades. Our service allowed the people of Afghanistan to thrive and create opportunities for themselves over the past 20 years. We don’t know what tomorrow will bring, but I know together we can get through anything”
