Returning Guard members come from Portland, Forest Grove, McMinnville and Salem communities. The Task Force demobilized at Ft. Bliss, Texas where they completed an additional 14-day quarantine prior to their departure for Oregon. (Oregon National Guard photo by Aaron Perkins, Oregon Military Department Public Affairs)
