WIESBADEN, Germany -- Brig. Gen. Mark Hertling - beginning a tour of 1st Armored Division communities in Hanau, Friedberg and Giessen - addressing the concerns of family-members.
“Decisions were made to ask the 1st Armored Division to stay, not because we were available, but because everybody down there knows we are good at what we do..”
“The U.S. and the enemy have our hands around each other’s throats. We have got to see this thing through and win..”
(Those in command) are aware of the concerns of the families and soldiers and will do everything to support them in these tough times.
