Thank you, Mr. President. In his last days in office, President Biden formally said goodbye to the United States Armed Forces. As Commander-in-Chief, he also paid tribute to the service and the sacrifices made by America’s military. The honor is ours 🫡 🇺🇸 #AmericasRegiment

Our U.S. Armed Forces had the immense honor of serving former president Jimmy Carter’s historic state funeral. They nobly carried out their duties to support the 39th President’s farewell. Thank you President Carter for your lifetime of service 🇺🇸 . #AmericasRegiment #JimmyCarter

In November, Tyler Perry, Kerry Washington and Ebony Obsidian spoke with #OldGuard Soldiers as part of a USO tour. The tour ended with a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in honor of the 6888th Central Postal Battalion, known as the "Six Triple Eight."
