Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Visits TF Lumberjack



Four-star Admiral Mike Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, visited the soldiers of Task Force Lumberjack at the end of March. He did so as a promise he made in November 2009, when he first visited the 20th Engineer Battalion at Fort Hood after the terrorist murder of Lumberjack soldiers. The admiral spent a lot of time with the soldiers, speaking with them, reenlisting several of them, and presenting awards and decorations.
