BTC, Monrovia-The Deputy Defense Minister  for Administration, Honorable Joseph F. Johnson  says the Michigan National Guard(MNG) remains a true partner  to the Liberian Defense Sector in building the Armed Forces of Liberia(AFL) as a professional force.

Speaking during the visit, Major General Gregory Vadnais expressed gratitude to Deputy Minister Johnson and his officials for the warm hospitality accorded him and his team during their visit at the Defense Ministry. He further  extolled the Defense Family for  its positive role in the partnership that now draws the  MNG and the AFL at a closer latitude, adding “partnership is one of the three key pillars of the MNG, therefore we consider our partnership with the AFL very valuable.”   Major General Vadnais assured Liberia’s Defense Family that the MNG remains committed to forging an enduring tie  with the AFL through the subsisting partnership between the two entities.
