Warriors and their families and coworkers are being encouraged to come learn to knit or crochet every Thursday with the Joint Base Andrews Warrior Knitters group at the Joint Base Andrews Community Center anytime from 10 a.m. to noon. . “After my deployment, I could not deal with everyday stressors. I suffered from anxiety and depression. Knitting, to me, is one avenue to help me cope with my disorder. Surprisingly, knitting has helped me concentrate and stay focused,” said Staff Sgt. Rex Sampaga, 744th Communications Squadron/Chapel 1 Augmentee and Warrior Knitter group participant.
