Utica National Guard Recruiting

I received a phone call this evening from a 70 year old local resident. She was trying to get in contact with the National Guard Soldiers/Airmen from the Syracuse Fairgrounds vaccination site. She wanted to let them know of how great of a job they are doing and how much it meant to her. She was extremely nervous about getting the vaccine and delayed it as long as she could but finally decided to do so so she can safely see her grandkids. When she got to the vaccination si...te she was even more nervous because of the distance she would have to walk with her cane. She said as soon as she stepped out of her car a young Soldier or Airmen ran to her with a wheelchair and escorted her to and from her vaccine appointment. The entire time the person was calming her down and making her less anxious. She wanted to thank all of you. She was very emotional on the phone and was so thankful for the work you are all doing. She wanted to know how much that means to so many people that may feel the same as her. Keep up the great work! #NYARNG I am proud of you all as well and am proud to be part of an organization that is so committed to serving its community. This is just one tiny experience that was shared. You are all changing lives and the interactions you have with others are making a difference. -SFC Wasielewski
