Guardsmen assigned to Joint Task Force Magnolia line the streets alongside civilian first responder partners during an honor escort as part of a dignified transfer in Washington, D.C., demonstrating unity, public trust and interagency cooperation in support of the Nation’s Capital, Jan. 8, 2026. The presence of National Guard and local partners underscored a shared commitment to protecting communities, strengthening resilience and honoring those who serve—principles aligned with national priorities that emphasize strong civil-military relationships and effective domestic response.
The transfer honored Terry Bennett, a member of the Metropolitan Police Department, who was struck by a vehicle while assisting a motorist on Interstate 695 on Dec. 23, 2025, and later died from his injuries. Bennett’s service and sacrifice were recognized by law enforcement, National Guard members and community partners as they paid tribute to his line-of-duty death and reaffirmed their collective responsibility to safeguard the public.
