Today we honor our fallen warriors.
The ones we loved. The ones we called brothers and sisters. Family without blood. Friends.

The dead are only truly gone when their names are no longer spoken.

We raise a horn for you. ⚔️🍯

SFC David A. Heringes – A seasoned paratrooper and leader who gave his life in Iraq in 2007. Known for his dedication to his soldiers and mission, he stood with the 82nd Airborne until the very end.

CSM Donovan E. Watts – A Command Sergeant Major who led from the front. Respected as both a warrior and mentor, he died serving alongside his troops in Iraq in 2006.

SGT William M. Sigua – A young NCO and paratrooper whose courage carried him into the fight beside his brothers. He gave his life during combat operations in Bayji in 2007.

SPC Eric C. Palmer – A 21-year-old paratrooper who fought beside his unit with honor and determination. He later succumbed to wounds received in combat in Iraq.

SPC Christopher E. Mason – Known for his loyalty and willingness to stand beside his fellow soldiers no matter the danger. He was killed during combat operations in Iraq in 2006.

CPL Nicholas A. Arvanitis – A young airborne infantryman who faced the enemy head on in Iraq. His courage and sacrifice remain part of the legacy of the 82nd Airborne.

CPL Anthony K. Bento – A warrior remembered for his spirit and service to those beside him. He was killed in action in Iraq in 2007 while serving with the 82nd Airborne Division.

SFC Tony L. Knier – A respected NCO and combat leader who spent his life guiding younger paratroopers. He gave his life in Iraq in 2006 after an IED attack near his vehicle.

To the fallen - you are remembered.
To the brothers and sisters left behind - we still carry you with us.

Til Valhalla. SKÅL.

⚔️🍯 A warrior of the Longhouse draws closer to glory. 🍯⚔️

One of our Shield Wall members has officially reached 750 points — now standing only 250 points away from becoming the first member to earn a full-size shield in the Longhouse.

That shield won’t just be a prize.
It’ll be earned through loyalty, gatherings in the hall, and many horns of mead raised among friends.

The road to 1,000 has begun…

The question now is:
Who will be next to join the Full Shield Wall? 👀

SKÅL! 🍯🛡️

It’s International Viking Day, and while there’s no massive celebration this year, we’re still doing it right.

48 hours. That’s all it took:

-1,900 lbs of honey delivered
-3 Tanks emptied, cleaned, and filled
-700 lbs honey gone to make 500 gallons of mead
-Kegs filled
-Cans ready

And somehow… it still disappears faster than we can make it. The Longhouse doesn't slow down.

Come get yours while it’s flowing. 🍯⚔️

The Longhouse is losing a legend.

Gage, our lead bartender and Denim King, is off to bigger adventures.

To ensure he doesn’t suffer from a lack of quality denim out there, we’ve started an “Emergency Denim Fund”.

Come by, grab a drink, toss something in the jar, and send him off properly. 🍻

Official going away party: Saturday, April 18 | 6–10 PM
