Evening, Folks and FRiends! Sarge is back for another duty watch.
Not too bad a weather picture, for once. A little rain this morning, but we got a steamy humid day out of it.
Here's a few pics for y'all!

This is the shoulder patch of the 35th Infantry Division, "The Santa Fe "Division". The Santa Fe Cross was a symbol used to mark the old Santa Fe trail, an area where the unit trained, and was officially designated as an identifying device for the unit by Headquarters, 35th Division, General Orders Number 25, dated 27 March 1918. The organization is referred to as the Santa Fe Division.

This is the patch of the Kentucky Army National Guard.
Red, white and blue are our national colors. The color Yellow and the red and blue allude to the combat arms: Armor (Cavalry), Artillery, and Infantry. The long rifle is inseparably associated with the early history of Kentucky prior to and after its admission to the Union as the 15th State.
Pretty neat history bites, huh?
I'll be on watch the rest of the night. See You Online!
