C Battery is back on U.S. soil
Members of C Battery are back on U.S. soil and are preparing to return
to Kentucky.
Specific orders for the local National Guard unit had not been received
at press time, but members of the Family Support Group indicated the troops
will likely be home Friday, Saturday or Sunday.
The local unit departed Iraq on Thursday, January 12, with the last
flight out of Anaconda at approximately 6 p.m. The soldiers were in Kuwait
until Saturday when they headed back to the states.
According to members of the Family Support Group, the National Guard
unit flew into Baltimore, Maryland on Sunday, January 15. Their flight was
originally slated to land in New Jersey, but was diverted because of snow.
The troops were then taken by bus to Ft. Dix that afternoon.
More specific information about the soldiers' return to Monticello is
expected to be released mid-week. Family members indicated the unit will fly
into Louisville, but specific transportation details back to Monticello had
not been determined at press time.
