Maj. Gen. Bill Gerety, commander 80th Training Command (TASS), awards the Meritorious Service Medal to Sgt. 1st Class Ricardo J. Hart, communications and electronics officer Security Forces Advisory Assistance Team Detachment 82 during an award ceremony, Fort Bliss, Texas, April 24, 2014. Hart received the medal for the time he served with the Nevada National Guard as a platoon sergeant and coordinator of the state's Yellow Ribbon program. Hart transferred from the National Guard to the Army Reserve after the team lost its original communications officer and Lt. Col. John Strahan, commander SFAAT DET 82, asked him to deploy with the detachment. Hart and 15 other Citizen-Soldiers from various units across the 80th TC are scheduled for deployment to Afghanistan in May 2014 to advise and assist the Afghan Border Police at Regional Command West near the Iranian border.
