Colonie, N.Y., resident, 1st Sgt. Joseph Martel, and Capt. Kevin Manion from Stillwater, N.Y., display their unit's Yellow Banner and Welcome Home plaque upon its return from a deployment to Iraq during a ceremony at Army Support Activity-Dix's Timmermann Center June 13. Their unit, 206th Military Police Company, is a New York Army National Guard organization from Latham, N.Y. It mobilized out of Dix last summer and spent the last year mentoring and training the Iraq police around the area of Basra, Iraq. The Yellow Banner is given to units who mobilize through ASA-Dix as a symbolic gesture that they are in the thoughts and well-wishes of the ASA-Dix community. The banner is hung in Infantry Park while the unit is deployed and given back to the organization upon its return from combat.
