3rd Brigade conducts staff ride to National D-Day Memorial

Staff members from the 3rd Brigade, 98th Division (IT), from Salem, Va. conducted a staff ride to the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford, Va. in September. The staff ride was conducted in conjunction with the Brigade’s Yearly Training Briefing (YTB). The National D-Day Memorial is a tribute to the fallen Soldiers who fought with allied forces on June 6, 1944, during the invasion of Normandy, France. The small rural town of Bedford was selected for the memorial site because Bedford lost more men on the battlefield, per capita, than any other area in the United States.
