    Nome City Mayor, Richard Beneville and Maj. Gen. Torrence Saxe, adjutant general, discuss rural operations, recruiting, and local concerns during a meeting in Nome, Alaska, Dec. 17, 2019. Members of the Alaska Department of Military and Veterans Affairs visited Nome as part of the department’s new rural operations hub concept to strengthen the department’s ties with Alaska’s rural communities. Maj. Gen. Torrence Saxe, Alaska National Guard commander and adjutant general, and commissioner of the DMVA, brought a team that included representatives from the state Office of Veterans Affairs, Air and Army Guard recruiters, members of the joint staff, and the Alaska State Defense Force. Plans to grow rural operations in Alaska have also included stops in the Alaska communities of Bethel, Kwethluk, Napaskiak, Galena, and Kodiak, and future visits include Utqiagvik and Kotzebue.
