The 201st Regional Support Group came to the office today to present Randy, Roxanne, and Christina with a medal/award for exceptional meritorious service while supporting the National Guard in their continued training with HazMat. This award has only been presented to 1 other civilian until today !!
This is a huge honor to not only these three people but GFSTC as a whole. If you know this team you know it is a group effort and we are better together!
