The conference was organized by Command Sgt. Maj. Lombardo to discuss Lt. Gen. Daniel’s priorities, address issues, and create solutions with committed owners and timelines assigned to them. The event focused on training, retention, and recruitment from command down to the company level. The topics were divided up into groups and select USARC guests were divided into groups to offer their perspectives. After the groups broke down the priorities, they worked together to create actionable solutions and presented them to everyone, including Command Sgt. Maj. Lombardo.

“This event was very productive and an amazing experience because the USARC guests and I were able to offer our perspectives from the company level back to USARC and help discover where some of the disconnects are. I am so thankful and honored for the chance to attend this event along with the other 108th Soldiers to showcase to the force why the 108th is the best Command in USARC,” said Young.

The Army’s future is bright!”
