The 328th Military Police Company is a commendable unit within the New Jersey Army National Guard. Let me share some information about this dedicated company:
- Deployment to Guantanamo Bay (GTMO): On June 3, 2015, the 328th Military Police Company deployed from the Silas L. Copeland Arrival/Departure Air Control Group airfield in Fort Bliss, Texas, to Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, Cuba. Their mission involved providing security and support operations at GTMO. This deployment marked their commitment to duty and service, especially considering their previous deployment in 2009 for detainee operations during Operation Iraqi Freedom1.
- COVID-19 Sendoff Ceremony: In May 2020, the 328th Military Police Company received a modified sendoff ceremony at the Cherry Hill Armory in New Jersey due to COVID-19 restrictions. Despite the challenges, these Citizen-Soldiers embarked on a nine-month deployment in support of U.S. Southern Command, demonstrating their dedication and readiness2.
These brave soldiers exemplify duty, honor, and service to their state and nation.
