Father’s Day: Deployed Together

Thousands of miles from Nebraska and far from traditional Father’s Day celebrations, two Nebraska National Guard fathers are sharing an experience few service members have, deploying alongside their sons. At Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa, U.S. Army Maj.

Mark McClure, Exercise Branch Chief, serves beside his son, 2nd Lt. Ethan McClure, Antiterrorism and Force Protection (AT/FP) Deputy Director, along with Maj. Chris Rewczuk, Base Operating Support-Integrator (BOS-I) Branch Chief, who is deployed with his son, Spc.

Max Rewczuk, wheel mechanic, and son-in-law, Spc. Jayden Day, wheeled mechanic. Their assignment with the 67th Maneuver Enhancement Brigade offers a rare opportunity to strengthen family bonds while serving their country together.
