    You could say that the National Guard bridges the gap between citizen and Soldier, community and military. However, 10 Soldiers of the North Carolina National Guard’s 878th Engineer Company really built a bridge when they deployed to Fort Jackson, S.C., April 10 - 12. The engineers brought more than 100 years of combined civilian and military experience completing a bridge over a creek at Legion Lake. Not just mechanical skill with five-ton skid steers, generators, augers, chain saws but the professional’s touch building among trees and wetlands without destroying either. “We seek out projects like this, it is good training,” said Warrant Officer Timothy Calton, project leader.
