- Mentorship is at the heart of it all. Summer interns supporting the West Virginia National Guard's mission add value while gaining first-hand experience across several areas of emphasis. #OneGuard #WVNG @jimdseward @wvgovernor @USNationalGuard @weguardwestvirginia @130thAW
- From Mannington, WV, to a flight crew in Williamstown, service runs in the Harrison family. Sgt. 1st Class Emma Harrison and Staff Sgt. Fred Harrison are siblings who know what it means to have each other’s backs. 1/5
Replying to @WVNationalGuard“Growing up together and now flying on the same aircraft gives us a level of trust and understanding that is hard to replicate,” Harrison said. “So much of what happens in the back of the aircraft relies on non-verbal communication.” 4/5
“Because we’ve known each other our entire lives, that connection comes naturally,” Harrison said. “It allows us to work together seamlessly and brings a level of efficiency that most crews spend years developing.” 5/5 #WVNG #PressOn #AlwaysReadyAlwaysThere
