Maj. Gen. Rodney Boyd, the Adjutant General of the State of Illinois and Commander of the Illinois National Guard, Command Sgt. Maj Kehinde Salami and Jean Harris of Survivor Outreach Services having fun with water with Gold Star families during the July 20 Chicago Fire Boat Architectural Tour on Lake Michigan and the Chicago River. Harris is the "bonus" mother of Illinois Army National Guard Sgt. Joshua Harris, who was killed in action on Sept. 17, 2008, while serving with the 33rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team in Afghanistan. The July 20 boat tour was led by Maj. Gen. Rodney Boyd, the Adjutant General of the State of Illinois and Commander of the Illinois National Guard, and organized by the U.S. Army's Survivor Outreach Services and the Illinois National Guard for the 34 Illinois National Guard Gold Star Families whose service members were killed overseas since the September 11, 2001 terror attacks. This year, the tour was opened to Gold Star families whose family members served on active duty or in the Reserves. The tour gave the Gold Star Families time to connect with one other and with the leadership of the Illinois National Guard.
