Celebrating Success at ForgeNow! Last week, the Commanding General of Fort Johnson, BG Curl, and Installation CSM Pena recognized two outstanding service members, Matthew and Neil, with the Commanding General’s Coin for their achievements at ForgeNow. Matthew graduated at the top of his HVAC class, and Neil led the way in Plumbing! In addition, Colonel Lopez, the Garrison Commander of Fort Johnson, presented both of them with the Garrison Commander Coin, further recognizing their hard work and dedication. These two veterans are stepping into new careers, equipped with in-demand skills, and ready to make an impact. Their journey highlights the power of programs like The Boot and ForgeNow, which bridge the gap between military service and high-demand industries. Congratulations, Matthew and Neil! Your success is a testament to the value of these training programs and the bright futures ahead for transitioning service members. Also Thank you to, Fort Johnson- Transition Assistance Program, United States Army Transition Assistance Program, and JRTC and Fort Johnson #VeteranSuccess #ForgeNow #TheBoot #TransitioningVeterans #SkilledTrades #FortJohnson #SkillBridge
