CAMP ARIFJAN, KUWAIT -- The 371st Sustainment Brigade received a very special visit from Lt. Gen. Daniel Hokanson, the Vice Chief for the National Guard Bureau.

Hokanson first paid an office call to Col. Gregory Betts, commander of the 371st SB. He then participated in a leaders briefing to find out how the Soldiers of the National Guard unit were doing since they arrived on ground in June.

"It's great to see how our National Guard Soldiers are integrating and working so well with their active duty counter parts," said Hokanson.

After his briefing, Hokanson went on a tour to see the many work spaces of the 371st SB to meet and greet the troops.
