We're honored to welcome Ms. Meleah and Brigadier General Jeffrey Jurasek to the First Army Family, and Task Force Deed Headquarters. BG Jurasek, FA Deputy Commanding General - Sustainment, is a proud Army Reserve Warrior Citizen. Welcome to the team!
First Army's Observer/Coach Trainers are the cornerstone of all we do. This week OC/Ts from @1aeast are prepping our partners from @VaNationalGuard to deploy in support of @CJTFHOA.
First In Deed!
Outstanding opportunity to meet with some cadets from the University of Iowa yesterday. It was an honor to meet these young leaders and I’m proud to say the future of America’s Army is bright!

Honor Flight of the Quad Cities brought 90 Veterans to Washington D.C Thursday.
The flight included the memory of two Veterans unable to make last year's cancelled trip. Two Flags were carried, representing these fallen heroes.
Such an honor to welcome them home!

Yesterday was a somber day for our Armed Forces. Our hearts ache for the service members killed and wounded in the Kabul attacks as well as their Families and loved ones. We are proud to call each one of them our brothers and sisters.
“Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” Many of you have served in Afghanistan. Simple words cannot express our sorrow right now, and many of you are troubled by the bleak images from Kabul.
Great to visit with the leadership of @1aeast during commander’s conference. Be proud of what of what you do and keep pushing your Soldiers to be the best OC/Ts in the @USArmy
Happy 103rd birthday to America’s first field army, First Army! Could not be more proud to command this team. Honoring our past while looking to the future and continuing to provide world-class OC/Ts. First in Deed!
Great meeting last week with world-class First Army Observer Coach Trainers at @forthood to get a grasp on their engagements and satisfaction working in our formation.
I am speaking at the @qcriverbandits game about the partnership between First Army and the Quad Cities community. My CSM is throwing out the first pitch. Proud to be part of the community as @FirstArmy celebrates ten years in the QC. @ChamberQC
Winning Matters. As always, I trust in my NCO’s. I have confidence in Sgt. 1st Class Torres to succeed in a field of tough competitors. Good luck, and represent @FirstArmy well.

My Soldiers from across @FirstArmy are testing systems to mobilize Soldiers in the event of large scale contingency operations. We can’t do exercises like Pershing Strike without our Reserve partners. #totalforce
#USArmyReserve Psychological Operations Soldiers are training at Pershing Strike 2021!
During equipment familiarization, Soldiers practiced on NGLS, which is an audio system that is modular & easily moved from location to location.
