U.S. Army Sgt. Sarah Noel (left), Staff Sgt. Tristan Hightower (center), and Master Sgt. Christopher Allen (right) receive coins of excellence from Chief of the National Guard Bureau, Gen. Steven Nordhaus, for their outstanding assistance with the credentialing process for incoming National Guard soldiers and airmen supporting the 60th Presidential Inauguration, Jan. 20, 2025. Approximately 8,000 National Guard service members from approximately 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. (Courtesy photo)
