U.S. Army Maj. Edward Lartey, 74th Troop Command chaplain, prepares to provide religious support at the D.C. Armory in Washington, D.C., as part of Joint Task Force-District of Columbia (JTF-DC) operations leading up to support of the 60th Presidential Inauguration, Jan. 15, 2025. Approximately 8,000 National Guard service members from 40 states and territories comprise JTF-DC to support the 60th Presidential Inauguration, continuing a legacy that began in 1789 when their predecessors escorted George Washington to the first inauguration. At the request of civil authorities, these National Guard service members provide critical support such as crowd management, traffic control points, CBRN response, civil disturbance response, and sustainment operations. Their expertise and seamless collaboration with interagency partners help ensure a safe and peaceful transition of power during this historic event. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Spc.
