A Quick Note From the Association President!
I wish all Rakkasans and their families the best Thanksgiving Day ever.
At this time of the year, we all pause to reflect on the previous months. We live in a great country and are part of a great Rakkasan Association. I hope the holiday season is enjoyable for each of you.
See you in Clarksville in May.

Thanksgiving Around the Globe!
Starting with World War II, Rakkasans have been celebrating Thanksgiving Dinner around the globe - Philippines, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Europe and other counties as well as locations within the United States. On many occasions over the years, the holiday meal has been interrupted or delayed due to active combat situations. 2024 finds the current/active Rakkasans at Ft Campbell, Kentucky or gathering at home.
Wherever you are today, we wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving! But ask that you take a moment to remember times past, say a toast to the fallen and reach out to a Rakkasan who may be alone in the days ahead.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Let Valor Not Fail
