A little about Team Maverick...
SFC Vashti Torres is a favorite among our Angels. We had the honor of supporting her during a previous deployment with Team Diamond Head back in 2012. Vashti has redeployed and shares a bit about her new role with the 1st Cavalry Division.
Torres writes, "Team Maverick is deployed out of Fort Hood, Texas to Bagram (eastern Afghanistan). Team Maverick is a part of the intelligence section of the 1st Cavalry Division, ensuring the Commanding General has the right information to make important decisions.
Team Maverick consists of three women and 22 men, ranging in age from early 20’s to early 40’s. For some of the Soldiers, this is their first deployment. For others, it’s their fourth or fifth. Most of the 25 members of Team Maverick will be spending only a few months in Afghanistan, then moving to work out of Kuwait for the rest of the year, still supporting the efforts of those remaining in Afghanistan."
