Bowling Green,KY – Command Sergeant Major John Brownell says care packages sent to the soldiers in his unit have meant a great deal in recent months. The WKU graduate student is taking Kinesiology, Recreation, and Sport Administration classes on-line while he's serving in Afghanistan with the 6th Squadron, 4th Cavalry Regiment, 3rd Brigade, 1st Infantry Division from Fort Knox. Members of the KRS Department, the Alive Center, and Extended Learning and Outreach have helped to coordinate the donations of the care package items. Anyone wanting more information about how to help with the August 15th shipment can call (270) 745-3153.... Dan Modlin has more on the story..
