Send-off from Fort McCoy


Maj. Gen. David Sprynczynatyk smiles as he talks to members of the North Dakota National Guard on Thursday in Fort McCoy. The approximately 40 guardsmen with the 1st Battalion, 188th Air Defense Artillary Regiment just spent a year in Afghanistan helping protect American bases. They returned to North Dakota by bus Thursday evening after spending several days at Fort McCoy as part of their demobilization. Dave Olson / The Forum
