Meet Christina Herbert, Fall 2025 Intern

On Veterans Day, in this inaugural issue of the Night Stalker Foundation newsletter, we pay tribute to all veterans of this great Nation. Thank you.
Night Stalkers, Veterans and Patriots,
Please join the Night Stalker Foundation as we celebrate Night Stalkers, past and present, for their selfless and committed service to a cause greater than self in peace and war. Like so many other Veterans, they chose to do so in the cloth of our Nation willing to give all they had and all they were in the cause of freedom and justice.
Quiet professionals, they chose to serve in a special way. As our Night Stalker Creed states: Service in the 160th is a calling few will answer for the mission is constantly demanding and hard. And when the impossible has been accomplished, the only reward is another mission that no one else will try.
Please join me and our Foundation team in saluting our Night Stalkers, their Families and our Gold Star Families for their service and sacrifice. We stand ready to assist our Night Stalker Family whenever and wherever the need arises.
Night Stalkers Don't Quit!

COVID-19 found its way into our lives early this year and continues to place an unwanted burden in just about everything we do. Night Stalkers do not have the comfort of adjusting their combat requirements, nor are they able to put the safety of their families, or themselves above the mission, as they continue to accomplish everything asked of them. COVID-19 is simply another rock in their rucksack.
The 160th SOAR is still continuously deployed around the world, supporting elite special operations ground forces wherever they may be.
Unfortunately, two Night Stalkers paid the ultimate price in August of this year, while conducting a complex training exercise in California:
Despite the challenges with fundraising during these unprecedented times, the NSF continues to support Night Stalkers, their families, and our Families of the Fallen.
