Happy birthday to 5x Pro Bowler and Falcons legend, Andre Rison!

Kirby Smart spoke at UGA’s Pro Day about the new Falcons regime “I got to talk to a Kevin (Stefanski) for awhile, Matt (Ryan) for awhile. They’ve welcomed us to their organization and said ‘you can come to our place anytime you want.’” Smart said the Falcons “know what this university has to offer.” Sounds like a more collaborative era between UGA & Flowery Branch

Leigh Ann Hester was a twenty three year old sergeant with the Kentucky National Guard. When her convoy rolled into a narrow road southeast of Baghdad on March 20, 2005, the insurgents struck with rifles, machine guns, and RPGs, hammering the lead and rear vehicles to trap everyone inside. For a moment the entire column froze under the weight of surprise and fire. Hester did not freeze. She and her squad leader, Staff Sergeant Timothy Nein, maneuvered their Humvee through the ambush, swinging wide to flank the attackers. This move shifted the balance of the fight. Instead of waiting for rescue, they took the fight to the enemy. Hester left cover with her M4 and moved into a trench line where insurgents were firing on the convoy from close range. She engaged the fighters one by one, clearing the trench in a series of rapid bursts and precise shots. The attack collapsed under the pressure of her movement. By the end of the firefight more than two dozen insurgents had been killed, and every soldier in the convoy was alive because a small team chose to push forward instead of retreat. For her actions, Hester became the first woman since World War II to receive the Silver Star and the first woman ever to earn it for direct ground combat. She rejected the label of trailblazer and insisted she was simply a soldier doing her job. #TheIraqWar #NationalGuard #Heroes #MilitaryMonday
