82nd Airborne Division Paratroopers and veterans attended the 82nd Abn. Div. All American Prayer Breakfast during All American Week 2016 on Fort Bragg, N.C., May 24.

All American Week is an opportunity for 82nd Abn. Div. Paratroopers, past and present, and their Families to come together, enjoy camaraderie and celebrate being members of the All American Division. This year's All American Week theme is "Tomorrow's Force, Today!"

Past and present Paratroopers in attendance listened to life lessons and advice from Chaplain (Col. Ret.) Alvin "Sonny" Moore III, a past 82nd Abn. Div. chaplain and guest speaker for the event.

Moore explained three aspects that have guided him, such as a smile goes a long way, the power of relationships, and teamwork. He used amusing anecdotes to explain each aspect, eliciting smiles and agreement from those in attendance.

This year's All American Week marks the 99th anniversary of the 82nd Airborne Division.
