PRESENTATION OF SPECIAL RECOGNITIONS & AWARDS
Presentation by the North Carolina Army National Guard: I" Lt. Brian Gill, Staff
Sgt. George Campbell and Staff Sgt. Eric Ross attended the meeting and presented the county
with an appreciation plaque. Staff Sgt. Campbell read the plaque's inscription as follows:
1 wish to extend to you my personal gratitude and the appreciation of the Field Artillerymen
stationed with Alpha Battery, 1" Battalion, 113`8 Field Artillery, Statesville, North Carolina. Your
commitment to excellence combined with our time honored tradition continues to make Iredell County a
great place to live and work. The contributions you have made continue to help us meet the objectives of
our growing community.
Lt. Gill said the unit's strength, at present, was around 90%, and there was a high re-
enlistment rate (15 new recruits this month). He said the soldiers stood ready to serve the
community and any contingency missions throughout the world, as they did in Iraq 18 months
ago.
