The Commanding General of the Georgia State Defense Force, Brig. Gen. Mark D. Gelhardt, Sr., recently attended a South Carolina State Guard training drill. While at the drill he addressed the troops and even sat in on a senior staff briefing.
In the last few years many State Defense Force Commanding Generals have taken trips to other State Defense Forces, such as when the South Carolina State Guard delegation visited the Alaska State Defense Force, to develop communications and see what each could be doing better to serve their National Guard and State.
