(FORT STEWART, Ga.) – More than 100 Soldiers from the 3rd Infantry Division and the Georgia National Guard arrived home April 12, after a nine month deployment to Bagram, Afghanistan. The Soldiers flew into Hunter Army Airfield and were greeted by the command teams of Task Force Marne and the Georgia National Guard, as they disembarked the aircraft. “Welcome home, and well done,” Task Force Marne Commander Brig. Gen Sean C. Bernabe said, as he addressed the Soldiers before releasing them to be with their families. “Your individual actions and the actions of your unit over the last few months has helped stabilized that part of the world and I thank you.” This is the second group of Soldiers redeploying from the Marne Division. The final group of more than 120 Dog Face Soldiers is slated to return before the end of the month.
