On June 2, 2025, Sergeant of the Guard Sgt. 1st Class Andrew Jay took his final walk as a Tomb Guard at Arlington National Cemetery. In a powerful farewell, he laid roses at each crypt of the Unknown Soldiers, then walked off the plaza hand in hand with his 8-year-old son, Finn.

We are not the enemy. Those who cover the military have a deep respect for those who serve. Much of our reporting shines light on problems they face. Many of us have been downrange to bring home their experiences to the American public.
Our commitment to this mission continues.

Beyond honored to be joining @Milreporters as a board member at such a critical time for national security reporting. Covering the military and the military community is the best job there is — I'm thrilled to get to help support that work & the dedicated press who do it.
We @Milreporters are thrilled to announce that @CNN Pentagon reporter and producer @halbritz has joined our board of directors. Amazingly talented and highly regarded, Haley will make a great team even better as we continue advocating for journalists at this critical juncture.
