appreciation at the Luncheon. Samantha is the wife of PFC Marty Nance stationed
at Ft Sill. She is a senior full time student at TWU in Denton, works full
time, and the mother of 2 young kids. This is the type of student who needs
help from the Army Scholarship Foundation and who represents the type of young
Army family members today who are making sacrifices daily in defense of freedom.
