Rhod says:

These guys are The Rakassans. Not the 506th (my son) or Jack’s outfit, the Five-Oh-Two. They cordoned off a ten-mile square area and have gone lookin’ for the bad guys.

Wild Thing says:

OH wow Rhod thank you so much for telling me. Here it is Friday night and I am still so thrilled at what they all did, so proud of all of them.
Prayers and safety wishes for your both your sons Rhod. They are making history.
