Our Mission
We will honor SSGT Taylor Hoover, all 13 service men and women killed in Kabul on August 26, 2021, and all our service men and women. We will uphold the values of honor, courage, and commitment in all our endeavors and through every event we host under the SSGT Darin Taylor Hoover Memorial. The scholarship fund will be awarded to students who portray these values in their educational pursuits and daily lives.
