CAMP JOHNSON, Vermont  –  

Nine Soldiers from the Vermont Army National Guard are deploying to Fort Meade, Maryland for a year-long deployment in support of U.S. Army Cyber Command.

The deployment is part of Task Force Echo III. The task force consists of 12 states working under the 126th Cyber Battalion based out of Massachusetts.

Effective October 1, 2024: To streamline communications, all F-35 and Air National Guard related inquiries should be routed directly to the 158th Fighter Wing contact page or by calling 802-660-5379.
