88th Readiness Division Army Reserve Ambassador Workshop 2024
Col. Stacy Goodman, who relinquished command of the 88th Mission Command Support Group mere hours before her speaking engagement, spoke about the unique formations within the 88th, and how the Army bands, Chaplains, Historians, and Public Affairs Detachments could also be of service in getting ARAs in front of crowds of people, at the 88th Readiness Division Army Reserve Ambassador Workshop, 14 Sep. 2024 at Fort Snelling, Minn. The Army Reserve Ambassador Program is one of the ways the 88th RD builds connections to our many communities. ARAs are recommended and vetted through the division, and then appointed by the Chief of the Army Reserve. They hold an honorary rank equivalent to that of a Major (two-star) General. And they do all of this on a volunteer basis, for no pay. (U.S. Army Photo by Staff Sgt. Bob Yarbrough)
