Sgt. 1st Class Michael Sullivan, assistant operations noncommissioned officer with the 734th Regional Support Group, Iowa Army National Guard, kneels next to “Sully’s Lil Red Wagon” at Camp Dodge in Johnston, Iowa, on Nov. 17, 2022. When Iowa joined the entire country in a lockdown at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Sullivan noticed an increase in the homeless population in his Des Moines, Iowa, neighborhood. Thus, the idea for “Sully’s Lil Red Wagon” was born, a way for him to collect donations and help his community. Iowa Guard Soldiers helped him raise $400 in cash donations and $2,000 in purchased donations in 2020, and $1,400 worth in cash and items in 2021. He’s continuing the red wagon tradition throughout the holiday season this year. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Staff Sgt. Tawny Kruse)
