    Anne Marie Mattison, mother of fallen Florida Army National Guard Soldier Sgt. Jeffrey M. Wershow, speaks to Maj. Gen. James O. Eifert, Adjutant General for Florida, before a flag ceremony and memorial presentation Dec. 12, 2021. Wershow’s family presented Florida National Guard (FLNG) Soldiers with the 2-124 Infantry Battalion, 53rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team (IBCT) the Florida flag that had flown overseas with the Guardsman as a symbol of unity and pride. The bond between his combat arms family and his birth family was illustrated by the proudly displayed flag bearing his initials inside the unit he unwaveringly served. In addition to the exchange of the flag, the unit dedicated a Professional Development Center to the fallen Soldier to carry out Wershow’s philosophy of being an eternal student.
