By Maj. J. Scott Detweiler Vermont National Guard Public Affairs

Maj. Gen. Greg Knight, Vermont's adjutant general, and other members of Vermont National Guard leadership will discuss and answer questions on a number of topics related to the Guard March 25 at 6 p.m.

Highlighted topics of the night will include: burn pit registration, F-35 Lightning II training and conversion timeline, deployments and COVID-19 support to the state. There will also be an open question and answer period.
