On Thursday, September 3rd, Multiple Patriot Awards were presented to attorneys Guy Hughes, Allon Bailey and Michael Casey of Casey Bailey and Maines, PLLC, Attorneys at Law in Lexington, Kentucky. They were nominated by Captain Esteban Rodriquez of the 316th Expeditionary Sustainment Command, USAR, Coraopolis, PA. Captain Rodriquez who was not present is currently deployed. He requested that we not wait for his return to present these awards. He felt it was fitting to honor these individuals as soon as possible as they have been very supportive since the moment, he joined the Judge Advocate General’s Corps and especially as he was preparing to deploy. Allon Bailey is pictured signing a statement of support for the firm. (Photo left to right Guy Hughes, Allon Bailey, Michael Casey and ESGR Volunteer Ray Latendresse)

I posted this on my personal page a few days ago, with the intension to share it to this page, but I was too dumb to figure it out, so I just copied it instead.

Attended the 42nd Annual KYSHRM Conference this past week. It's always a pleasure to work with State CSM (R) and fellow ESGR volunteer Dave Munden. Met a lot of people and spread the word about the ESGR mission.

IMPRESSIVE! At the recent Boss Lift, bosses saw the Kentucky National Guard's artillery men and women shoot both howitzers and HIMARS. The same men and women who are counted upon in their civilian jobs also have demanding posts in the Army, requiring the same leadership, accountability and dependability skills in both.
Check out this HIMARS unit. KABOOM!
