Sharrie Kreh and the US Army have a long history of togetherness. Her father was a service member who served in World War II and later was a St. Louis City Fire Fighter for 36 years maintaining his professional bearing in uniform. During his war experience he sent home parachute silk from World War I, which was used to make Sharon’s christening gown. Three members of Sharrie’s family graduated from West Point.
