North Carolina Army National Guard Col. Rodney Newton, North Carolina National Guard (NCNG) Construction Facilities Management Officer reviews plans with a member of D.H. Griffin Companies for a future NCNG facility at Western Youth Institution facility in Morganton, North Carolina, July 11, 2020. Newton was invited to trigger the detonator that started the controlled implosion that brought down the 16-story facility to be cleared for the construction of a new NCNG Regional Readiness Center by Hickory Construction and sub contractor D.H. Griffin Companies. “I grew up a combat engineer but in the Guard we never brought down anything this big,” Newton said.
