The members of the Defense Acquisition University answered the call from Combined Federal Campaign by contributing a generous $46,378 to help those in need! Their 2023 goal was $30,000, but they exceeded that by 155%.

It is a common practice, that as people celebrate the new year, they make resolutions to help in their personal and professional lives. For those on Fort Belvoir looking for an option, defensive boxing might just be that helpful resolution. Defense boxing checks a lot of boxes: self-defense, fitness, stress relief, resilience, and confidence.

Both the House and Senate have passed the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act, which is expected to be signed by the president. Among other things, the bill authorizes a pay raise for both service members and civilian defense employees.

Fort Belvoir kicked off the Christmas season with the installation’s annual tree-lighting and Winterfest celebration Saturday. Hundreds of families celebrated the start of the season with bounce houses, laser tag, face painting, a candy cannon shoot, train rides, a gingerbread house contest, snowball fights and more. Just after sunset, the crowd made its way to the towering holiday tree just outside of Garrison Headquarters to witness the tree-lighting ceremony.

There are many reasons to be merry this holiday season. Ensuring your loved ones enjoy themselves responsibly is one of the most important ways to keep that merry feeling into the new year.
That is why the Fort Belvoir Army Substance Abuse Program would like everyone to embrace the spirit of sober driving this season. December is National Drunk and Drugged Driving Prevention Month. This campaign aims to prevent the loss of life by stressing safe driving practices and reminding those you care about to be sober, drug free, and safe on the road.
