It takes a village.⁣ 🎗

County, local, and state officials helping to get the word out on the 22 a Day beer release this Saturday. ⁣

We're so grateful the cause has recieved such attention, as we truly believe awareness is most what the cause needs. ⁣

If you didn't know, 22 a Day refers to the amount of service members that take their lives each day.⁣

Due to PTSD, or other mental health related issues it's clear America has a very real crisis on its hands.⁣

Between our city, county and state leaders declaring El Paso as the Veteran Capital of the United States, and the efforts of grassroots DAV and other Veterans, we are attempting to make their voices heard as loud and as farwide as we are capable. ⁣

We encourage you to come out this Saturday December 17th, beginning at 11am to support the cause the only way we are able - with beer. 22 a Day will be released on tap, and in 16oz 4 Packs to go where 100% of the profits go to Disabled American Veterans to assist in legislative work regarding the 22 a Day initiative. ⁣

Because even 1 a day is too many.

Who's ready for some Football? The annual Army vs Navy Game will be played on 10 DEC 22 at 1:00 PM.

The Army is honoring the 1st Armored Division Soldiers past and present by wearing a uniform dedicated to the Soldiers of 1st Armored Division during World War II.

This year marks the 80th anniversary of Operation Torch and the commencement of American ground operations against Axis forces in the European theater, which included North Africa.

Operation Torch marked the 1st Armored Division’s entry into the crucible of combat. The resilience, grit, and commitment demonstrated by the soldiers ultimately resulted in the defeat of Axis forces in North Africa. In the harsh desert against a determined enemy, the members of the 1st Armored Division were forged into “Iron Soldiers” and learned the lessons that would guide them to success in subsequent operations in Italy and Western Europe.
