Train together. Stay ready.🐾

Training at the D.C. Armory reflects the importance of strong partnerships across the National Capital Region — bringing agencies together, sharing capabilities and ensuring teams are prepared before they are called upon. @USNationalGuard

“On even the most negative day, hunt for the good stuff!”

For U.S. Army Chaplain Christopher James, caring for service members means meeting them where they are — walking alongside them & helping strengthen the resilience that keeps them ready for the mission and for life.

Every interaction matters—because community trust is an essential part of public safety. @GeorgiaGuard

[FBI Washington Field @FBIWFO]

At the #FBI, partnership is the foundation of public safety.

#FBIWFO coordinates with dozens of federal and local partners every day to protect the nation's capital.

We provide operational support and technical expertise — and the results are historic.

Together with our D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force partners, we executed over 1,700 arrests, more than 560 drug seizures, and over 330 firearm recoveries this summer — contributing to a 30% drop in homicides and a 48% decrease in carjackings.

We also worked with our partners to secure major events celebrating America's semiquincentennial. Our agents and analysts shared intelligence to mitigate threats, including a planned attack targeting the UFC Freedom 250, while our bomb techs, crisis negotiators, divers, counter-drone operators, and other National Capital Response Squad members maintained a state of readiness to disrupt threats.

From day‑to‑day operations to historic celebrations, we're building a safer capital together.

Comms up. Systems connected.

From tactical radios, ATAK-enabled devices and live tracking to laptops, printers, phones and critical troubleshooting, the Joint Task Force-DC J6 team provides the communications backbone that maintains connectivity!

[District of Columbia National Guard @DCGuard1802]

Readiness is strengthened!

COL Mario Coaxum, commander of the 260th SPB, and CSM Kym Ricketts, 260th SPB SEL, joined Soldiers conducting water safety training in real-world conditions. Engagements like these connect the chain of command directly with point of execution!

@DCNationalGuard RRB marked a new chapter as MAJ Elise Dent assumed command from LTC Andrew Graham.

Under Graham’s leadership, annual enlistments grew from 37 to more than 150, ISTs expanded from 56 to more than 210, and the battalion ranked No. 1 among the 54 nationwide!

For Staff Sgt. Trina Quirindongo, a trip with her daughter, Jade, became the inspiration for their book, “Mommy and Me Take Flight.”

Now the Citizen Airman, mother and author is using her service and storytelling to inspire the next generation: https://t.co/eDQ8skuwS9

Training builds the skills and agility our service members need to adapt to changing situations, engage meaningfully with the community and respond when needed. @USNationalGuard
