Never Summer Industries was extremely psyched to be able to attend the welcome home ceremony for G Company 2-135th General Support Aviation Battalion. These soldiers just returned home from a year of saving lives in Iraq. The 135th is a helicopter medical evacuation unit, or MEDEVAC unit. The primary mission for the 135th G Company in Iraq was to provide life-saving support to US and Coalition Soldiers. G Company flew more than 2200 hours and provided MEDEVAC evacuation for over 240 US and Coalition Force personnel.
Never Summer Industries is extremely proud to have been able to supply these custom snowboards as a welcome home gift to these heroes. In fact, we were so proud to participate that we plan on making custom military boards for the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard for the 2011/12 season. Details will be posted on our website in September.
