PFC Hodges is a dedicated soldier, having recently returned to the 29th after a brief hiatus. In his return, he has taken S1 to a few LZ’s and even picked up the survivors. Combined with a deadly rifle shot, PFC Hodges is an asset to any squad. He has fought with the 29th for two years, and thus it is time he receives his 4th AOCC and his 1st WW1 victory medal. Congratulations and here’s to many more!
