As I scrolled endlessly through files and folders to catch up as quickly as I could, I found myself slacking a bit to check in with Instagram and Facebook (sorry boss!). Amidst the posts of my friend’s birthday parties and opinions on gold/white or blue/black dresses, I always look for my favorite hashtag; Throwback Thursday.      I really can’t say what exactly about #TBT’s I love so much. It feels like sharing photos and stories give us a sense of nostalgia and connectedness. These posts frame a moment in time and create the opportunity to share and reflect on the past, which is exactly what I need in order to learn about the military in a visceral way.      So here we are -- the first official Throwback Thursday for Military History. As I learn about and recount specific awards, battles, and events, I hope you all will join me in reveling in the past and maybe see yourselves in a few stories.

But somehow you do.

This year, President Barack Obama made the same proclamation as we all strive to be more aware of what steps to take to maintain a healthier heart.   [Read More](https://blog.usfhp.net/5-simple-steps-to-a-healthier-heart) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.usfhp.net/5-simple-steps-to-a-healthier-heart#comments-listing) Topics: [Healthy Living](https://blog.usfhp.net/topic/healthy-living), [Heatlhy Eating](https://blog.usfhp.net/topic/heatlhy-eating), [Good Eating Habits](https://blog.usfhp.net/topic/good-eating-habits) ## [US Family Health Plan Salutes the Tuskegee Airmen](https://blog.usfhp.net/us-family-health-plan-salutes-the-tuskegee-airmen) Posted by [admin](https://blog.usfhp.net/author/admin) on Feb 26, 2018, 4:07:58 PM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.usfhp.net/hubfs/hith-tuskegee-airmen-E.jpeg)](https://blog.usfhp.net/us-family-health-plan-salutes-the-tuskegee-airmen)      In honor of Black History Month, US Family Health Plan salutes the Tuskegee Airmen for their exceptional bravery and achievements during World War II.
