A helping hand for Navajo vets
23 Jul 2018
Roughly 15 miles outside of Gallup on tribal land, a dilapidated mobile home sits in a scrubby lot.
By the looks of it, children must live here, too, as there are tricycles and toys scattered in the dirt. Several small dogs are tethered outside and whine and wag their tails at the construction crew.
Just feet from the mobile home, the family’s brand new house is being finished, with several Air National Guard members inside laying flooring and hooking up the plumbing and electricity.
