Today, we salute Army Veteran Etheridge Lovett. Etheridge served six years in the Army starting in 1979, including some time in South Korea. He called the experience of being immersed in a different culture and country “beautiful.”  At 63, though he has retired from service, he still wants to serve and protect, and he has invited a device that would fill both of those needs. He calls it the “Wrist Sheath,” and while it looks like a movie prop, it has everything military personnel and first responders need, and Etheridge believes it will help save lives. It’s a device that holds essential items servicemembers need to access in a hurry — including a watch, flashlight, knife, and much more.” Etheridge has already received encouragement from the U.S. Department of Defense. An official wrote: “I strongly feel that it needs to be on the wrist of every U.S. soldier operating in the combat arena around the globe.” Wishing you all the success, Etheridge, and THANK YOU for your service.
