Special to the Bulletin
The Texas State Guard First Brigade completed this past weekend its annual training and operational evaluation at the Camp Bowie Training Facility.
More than 300 soldiers took part in collective training focused on honing their readiness to respond to civil support and disaster relief operations for the state of Texas. The First Brigade is headquartered in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex with soldiers assigned to units stationed as far away as Tyler and Amarillo.
“The Texas State Guard is one of the state’s most important assets in times of crisis,” said Brigadier General Robert Hastings. “The men and women who dedicate their time to support their fellow Texans represent the best values of the Texas State Guard.”
