In October 2010, Adopt-a-Soldier Platoon President Alan Krutchkoff was privileged to go to Afghanistan with the Washington Redskins Cheerleaders for X Bowl Afghanistan 2010. We were hosted by the 101st Airborne Div (AASLT) throughout our trip and we met incredible warriors along the way. We are now picking up the 101st for Operation Screaming Eagles in order to support these brave men and women on the front lines of freedom! Their stories will be posted here for this Operation. We're already shipping them scores of cartons of personal care products, healthy snacks, treats, chewing tobacco for our war fighters and some TRX Force Kits for exercising down range.
