Army Guard Adds to NASCAR Racing Stable

By Army Staff Sgt. Jon Soucy
Special to American Forces Press Service

ARLINGTON, Va., Oct. 2, 2008 – Many NASCAR fans are accustomed to seeing the National Guard name on Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s No. 88 car in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races.

Recently, however, the Guard added another driver and racing series to its roster.

This weekend, driver Landon Cassill will be sponsored by the National Guard in the Mountain Dew 250 Fueled by Winn-Dixie NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race at the Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Ala.

The sponsorship of Cassill, who drives the No. 81 truck, at Talladega ties in with Guard recruiting and retention events to be held during the race, said Army Lt. Col. Joseph Day, chief of Army National Guard marketing programs.

Those events are scheduled to include an appearance by Cassill as well as a performance after the race by the band Three Doors Down, whose song “Citizen/Soldier” honors Army National Guard soldiers. Guard recruiting booths will be set up along the track during the race.

For Cassill, this weekend’s race will be his seventh start as part of the 2008 season of the truck series. While this is Cassill’s rookie season, he placed in the top 10 at the Lowe's Motor Speedway in May and finished third at the Milwaukee Mile in June.

Those wins, Cassill said, largely have been from the efforts of the team behind the No. 81 truck. He said he hopes that, as well as the Guard sponsorship, will bring him success at Talladega.
