As many families gathered around the table this holiday season, thousands of service members spent the holidays far from home and their families had to celebrate without them. For the Parke family in Baltimore County, the holidays usually mean big meals, matching pajamas, and everyone together under one roof. This year, one chair was noticeably empty. Specialist Chyna Davis is deployed to the southern border with the United States Maryland Army National Guard, marking the first holiday season she has missed since joining the military. She’s a couple months into her year-long deployment. #holidays #holidayseason #veterans #localnews #baltimorecounty #maryland
