NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Most hospitals celebrate the first babies born of the year, but Fort Campbell’s hospital is focusing on the deliveries at the end of the year.

The 2,007th baby was born Sunday at Blanchfield Army Community Hospital, a milestone in the base’s baby boom created by troops returning last fall.

Jennifer Taylor, 32, is hoping the special designation for her new son, Joseph, gives him a little extra luck.

“I think it means we can expect great things from him,” Taylor said Monday from her hospital room, about 60 miles north of Nashville.

Taylor and her husband, Sgt. Danny Taylor, are among thousands of growing families at the post on the Tennessee-Kentucky state line that is home to the 101st Airborne Division.
