Maj. Gen. Janson D. Boyles, the adjutant general of Mississippi, presents Rita McCarty with the 2019 Secretary of Defense Environmental Security Award during a ceremony at Joint Force Headquarters July 23, 2019. McCarty, the state cultural resources manager, received the first place award for her efforts in rehabilitating two historic buildings at Camp Shelby Joint Forces Training Center that included a state-of-the-art curation facility, program offices and a cultural center for the MSARNG. Other efforts that led to the award included saving curation costs for artifacts by moving them into the new facility, providing public access to all cultural holdings, and initiating an internship program with the University of Southern Mississippi. This is McCarty's second award, she was third place last year, in the Secretary of Defense's Environmental Security Award category of Cultural Resources for a Large Installation.
