Proud to spend time with the Soldiers of the @PANationalGuard’s 228th Engineer Vertical Construction Company and their families today as they depart for a year-long deployment to the Southwest border. As a fellow Engineer, I know these “Keystone Engineers” are ready for the mission ahead. Safe travels! ⚔️🏰 #Essayons #KeystonePride #PANG #AlwaysReadyAlwaysThere #PennsylvaniaPride #OneTeamOneMission

Today at @TheUnionLeague, the prestigious MAJ Octavius Catto Medal was presented to @PADMVA’s Bureau of Outreach Director, Brian Natali. A Marine veteran, former Marine Corps League State Commandant, and tireless volunteer – from renovating the PA Veterans’ Memorial to coordinating Wreaths Across America at Indiantown Gap. Well-deserved honor for a true champion of Pennsylvania veterans! 🇺🇸 #PADMVA #CattoMedal #OctaviusCatto #MarineCorpsLeague #SemperFi #VeteransAffairs #SelflessService #OneTeamOneMission

Today at the 166th RTI, we case colors and bid farewell to a group of exceptional @PANationalGuard Soldiers from the 928th Finance Company as they deploy for a year.

Honored to address the 54th Annual Meeting of the @USAWOA in historic Gettysburg! Proud to highlight that the @PANationalGuard’s 336 Army Warrant Officers tie us with Texas for the largest cohort in the nation. Modern battlefields demand our technical experts step forward, drive innovation, and be a vocal force in the command suite. #USAWOA #ArmyTransformation #Leadership #OneTeamOneMission

Congratulations to all of our award winners! #OneTeamOneMission

Tonight, I had the honor of recognizing someone whose compassion and commitment have touched countless veterans and families across Pennsylvania, Helen Sajer. Helen, your unwavering dedication to our service members is known throughout the Commonwealth. You have always found ways to say “thank you” to those who protect our way of life, and tonight, we finally had the chance to say thank you to you. Pennsylvania is home to nearly 650,000 veterans, and organizations like PA Wounded Warriors are vital to ensuring they have support when they need it most. Since 2006, you and your team, entirely volunteers, have built one of the most respected veteran support organizations in the state. You are often the first to reach out to veterans in crisis, offering help with housing, utilities, transportation, and other urgent needs. Inspired by your son Frank’s safe return from Iraq, you and Major General Sajer committed yourselves to serving those who weren’t as fortunate. Your compassion has become a lifeline for so many. Helen, thank you, and thank your incredible team for never forgetting the veterans and families who need assistance across Pennsylvania. Congratulations on this much-deserved recognition. May God bless our veterans and the families who stand beside them.

“From NATO’s frontline to the keystone state: Lithuania and Pennsylvania’s ties.” 🇺🇸🇱🇹 Great meeting between @PANationalGuard leaders & @Lithuanian_MOD’s Minister of National Defence Robertas Kaunas at Fort Indiantown Gap today following our morning @Atlantic Council panel in Carlisle and a tour of Fort Indiantown Gap, EAATS & UAS sites discuss transatlantic defense & our 30+ yr SPP bond! 🇺🇸🇱🇹 #StrongerTogether #StatePartnershipProgram #Allies #FortIndiantownGap #StrongerWithAllies #OneTeamOneMission

Last night at Fort Indiantown Gap, we honored more than 260 @PANationalGuard Soldiers from B & C Companies, 1-109th Infantry Regiment, as they prepare to deploy to the Middle East.

To our Soldiers, their families, and employers: thank you for your selfless service and dedication. Pennsylvania stands proud behind you. 🇺🇸 #PANG #AlwaysReadyAlwaysThere #109thInfantry #PennsylvaniaPride #FortIndiantownGap #OneTeamOneMission

I was deeply honored by the warm welcome myself and Travis Davis, Executive Deputy Secretary for the @PADMVA received today at @SenatorMuth's 7th Annual Veterans Expo. Events like this remind us of the enduring strength, service, and sacrifice of the men and women who have worn our nation’s uniform. The Department of Military and Veterans Affairs carries a solemn obligation, one we hold at the very heart of our mission, to care for Servicemembers, Veterans, and their Families. It was great spending time with so many of you, including a very special group from our Southeastern Veterans' Center. Your courage inspires us to work each day with purpose, gratitude, and commitment. Thank you again for making today so meaningful.

Best of luck to the 50+ @PANationalGuard Soldiers and Airmen stepping onto the mats for our Keystone Combatives Tournament! You represent the grit, discipline, and lethality of our Joint Force. Top finishers advance to represent PA when we host the National Guard Combatives Championship right here in the Keystone State this January. Fight hard, fight smart. #OneTeamOneMission #PANG #NationalGuard #ModernArmyCombatives #WarriorEthos #KeystoneGuard
