00:04.240 --> 00:07.970
Yeah , it might not look like it ,

00:07.980 --> 00:10.036
but these people with orange bags on

00:10.036 --> 00:12.091
the side of the street are holding a

00:12.091 --> 00:14.258
memorial service two years ago . Chief

00:14.258 --> 00:16.202
warrant Officer for Brent cole was

00:16.202 --> 00:18.313
killed in action in Afghanistan while

00:18.313 --> 00:20.091
flying with the one A to attack

00:20.091 --> 00:22.258
reconnaissance battalion . So the unit

00:22.258 --> 00:24.424
got the city of favor to dedicate this

00:24.424 --> 00:26.480
street . And especially in more ways

00:26.480 --> 00:28.702
than one Andrews was picked , which was

00:28.702 --> 00:30.758
perfect because of uh , the location

00:30.758 --> 00:32.980
for uh , where his churches , where his

00:32.980 --> 00:35.147
family goes to church is right here on

00:35.147 --> 00:37.369
Andrews Avenue and then it's on the way

00:37.369 --> 00:39.424
into the airfield as well . And even

00:39.424 --> 00:41.536
though there's less than a month till

00:41.536 --> 00:43.536
the next deployment work and family

00:43.536 --> 00:45.591
were put off for a few special hours

00:45.591 --> 00:47.647
troopers that came out volunteered .

00:47.647 --> 00:47.490
They knew it was for , they knew the

00:47.490 --> 00:49.780
reason why we were doing it . They do

00:49.780 --> 00:51.947
have other things that they could have

00:51.947 --> 00:54.340
been doing . But a lot of the troopers

00:54.340 --> 00:56.618
that were here today actually knew him .

00:56.618 --> 00:58.784
Some of them flew with them crew chief

00:58.784 --> 01:02.400
for um spent time with them or , or

01:02.400 --> 01:04.890
were there during that deployment . The

01:04.890 --> 01:06.834
bonds that soldiers build together

01:06.834 --> 01:08.668
continue and extend out to their

01:08.668 --> 01:11.180
families For these soldiers taking time

01:11.180 --> 01:13.370
out of their day is one way of showing

01:13.370 --> 01:15.810
the families that bonds are forever .

01:15.820 --> 01:17.880
The location is perfect because my

01:17.880 --> 01:19.880
husband traveled this road to go to

01:19.880 --> 01:22.190
work and we attend the church here that

01:22.190 --> 01:24.290
the road is on . So every week we of

01:24.290 --> 01:26.710
course are able to see the sign . We're

01:26.710 --> 01:28.488
very humbled and just extremely

01:28.488 --> 01:30.710
grateful that the unit would go to this

01:30.710 --> 01:32.950
much trouble for us . And with the unit

01:32.950 --> 01:35.180
headed back to a war zone , It's more

01:35.180 --> 01:37.530
important now than ever to let soldiers

01:37.530 --> 01:39.890
No , they will not be forgotten should

01:39.900 --> 01:42.130
the worst happen reporting from

01:42.130 --> 01:44.330
Fayetteville north Carolina . I'm Army

01:44.330 --> 01:47.110
Sergeant Donna Davis Task Force

01:47.110 --> 01:47.760
Poseidon .
