GRAFENWOEHR, Germany - Command Sgt. Maj. John Sampa, the National Guard Bureau Command Sergeant Major, and three other NGB sergeants major visited deployed NG Soldiers and the 7th Mobilization and Reserve Affairs section at Grafenwoehr Training Area, Germany, Jan. 23, 2019.
The NGB command sergeant major spoke with Soldiers assigned to Bravo Battery, 1st Battalion, 147th Field Artillery Regiment, about their Atlantic Resolve deployment and unit strength.
“We want the organization to be proud and recruit other folks,” said Sampa.
It’s an everlasting memory when a senior military leader visits a unit during a deployment.
“It’s a once in a career opportunity,” said U.S. Army 1st Sgt. Dusty Kiner, the first sergeant for B Battery, 1-147 FAB. “It’s not every day the Army National Guard command sergeant major shows up to your unit while you’re training.”
Leaders visiting deployed unit, specifically National Guard, shows we’re a family.
“It really tells the Soldiers, the Army National Guard is aware of what we’re doing and paying attention to what missions we’re performing,” said Kiner.
