The National Guard has requested the Patriot Guard join them in welcoming home 500 soldiers returning from Afghanistan and I have committed us to being there, I hope you can make it!!
We will stage right at the Armory for 1030hrs. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to participate in a real “feel good†mission.
When - Sunday, August 5, 2007
Time - 11:00 a.m.
Location - Hartford Armory, Hartford, CT
Background - 500 Soldiers from the 102nd Infantry Battalion of New Haven returned from Afghanistan.
We would like the Patriot Guard to be part of the event by providing an honor cordon for the entrance of the Official Party and also have the Patriot Guard near the dais for the entire ceremony. The Patriot Guard will also be recognized in the script.
The Official Party will consist of the Governor, Lt. Governor, Sec. of State, Comptroller, Atty. Gen., MG Martin and other military dignitaries.
I will keep you post on upcoming events as well.
