    NDIANAPOLIS -- The Indiana National Guard named its newest inspector general, Col. Thomas M. Genter, of Whiteland, during a ceremony at its headquarters at Stout Field, Thursday, July 8.

    "Col. Genter will bring value to our organization, and his office is an integral part to the good order and discipline of the Indiana National Guard," said Brig. Gen. Dale Lyles, Indiana's adjutant general.

    Genter, who received his commission as an air defense officer from the U.S. Army's Officer Candidate School in 1997, has served in command and staff positions at every level of command from platoon- to corps-level assignments across the United States from Texas to Hawaii to Guam.

    Genter’s Hoosier State assignments include the department head and senior professor of military science at Purdue University and the commander of 1st Battalion, 362nd Air Defense Artillery Regiment at Camp Atterbury.

    “It is great to be back home again in Indiana with my family,” said Genter. “I’m looking forward to engaging with leaders at every level in order to enhance warfighting readiness of the Indiana National Guard.”

    The inspector general's office enhances the discipline, efficiency, economy, morale, training and readiness throughout the Indiana National Guard by assisting soldiers, airmen, civilians and their families with inspections, inquiries and investigations.
