Soldiers from the U.S. Virgin Islands enjoy well-prepared meals following a Joint Reception, Staging, Onward Movement and Integration briefing ahead of supporting the upcoming 60th Presidential Inauguration at the D.C. Armory, Washington, D.C., Jan. 14, 2025. The meals, designed to provide both nourishment and comfort, ensure the Soldiers stay energized and ready for their duties during this historic event. Approximately 8,000 National Guard service members from approximately 40 states and territories comprise JTF-DC to support the 60th Presidential Inauguration, continuing a legacy that began in 1789 when their predecessors escorted George Washington to the first inauguration. At the request of civil authorities, these National Guard service members provide critical support such as crowd management, traffic control points, CBRN response, civil disturbance response and sustainment operations. Their expertise and seamless collaboration with interagency partners help ensure a safe and peaceful transition of power during this historic event. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Staff Sgt.
