One Star to be precise. ⭐🫡 Brigadier General Kelly Hagenbeck, Deputy Commanding General-Support of the US Army Reserve (TAG https://www.facebook.com/usarmyreserve) 88th Readiness Division headquartered at Fort Snelling, Minnesota and Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, toured EHOVE recently. He was in the area to visit EHOVE's neighbor, Army Reserve unit 192nd Quartermaster, and requested to learn more about EHOVE because career tech/vocational engagement is a high priority for the branch. On the tour with him were (L-R) EHOVE Public Safety Department Coordinator Jamie Starcher, Ohio Army Reserve Ambassador and Norwalk Concrete Industries President John Lendrum, Army Reserve Administrator Theresa Eley, Ohio Army Reserve Ambassador and Command Sergeant Major - Retired Ralph Veppert, College, Career & Military Advisory Amy Planthaber, and Executive Administrative Assistant Kelsey Hammond (not pictured).
