Send-off planned for deploying ND Guard soldiers
FARGO, N.D. (AP) - A send-off ceremony is planned this weekend for about 160 North Dakota National Guard soldiers who are bound for a year of duty in Kuwait.
The soldiers are with the 188th Engineer Company of Wahpeton, which has a detachment in Oakes. The Sunday send-off is planned for 2 p.m. on the North Dakota State College of Science campus in Wahpeton.
The soldiers will leave later this month for final training at Fort Bliss, Texas, before heading overseas.
