James Mulkey was looking for his Army uniform for months before he saw a stranger’s viral Facebook post about it. The Flowery Branch native, now 28, was a psychological operations specialist in the Army Reserves for six years. He did one combat tour in Afghanistan, and spent the rest of that time here in Georgia.
