Just ordered one...Thanks ❤
Captain Andrew Ross, a 2009 West Point graduate, took over APK’s unit, Special Forces Unit ODA3126, after he was killed in action. Ross was so connected to APK, that he made a wooden American flag and presented it to Bob and Helen Keiser in 2017 at the annual APK 5K Ruck & Run. The following November, Ross was himself killed in action. Helen and Bob felt a fitting home for the flag was Avon Old Farms where it will be prominently displayed in the school. Pictured is Helen and Bob holding the flag, and Captain Andrew Ross is third from the left.

Love you guys, love that Drew was able to do that and be a part of all PK did for so many.
Will there be a formal ceremony at AOF? As an alumni of the school I would like to attend if so.
Drew, you are surely with the Lord! Always in our prayers!
