And not surprising, the Washington Military Department is at the forefront of preparation. We’ve taken considerable steps to become one of the nation’s leaders in cybersecurity. We’ve established a cyber program within our Emergency Management Division, and are one of the first states to include an annex within our state’s Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) that specifically addresses a cyberattack. Our National Guard soldiers and airmen conduct invaluable vulnerability assessments and penetration tests to help our partners both in the public and private sector identify areas of improvement so they can strengthen their IT networks. And we’ve incorpo- rated a cyber thread within our quarterly exercises – realizing that an attacker will likely strike when we’re most vulnerable. In April, our department continued to enhance our state’s ability to respond to a cyberattack with a groundbreaking discussion – pulling together leaders from all levels of government, the private sector, local utility companies and ports, as well as our tribal partners. This table-top exercise helped identify vulnerabilities, as well as the resources and expertise available across our state in the event of a major cyberattack. A common theme throughout the discussion centered on the importance of partnership. We acknowledge that the cyber threat is too large to take on by ourselves. We need you to partner with us and take some simple steps to protect yourself while on- line: • Ensure a site is secured before sharing personal identifiable information, like your social security number and birthdate. Even sharing your address can make you a target of crime; • Strengthen your privacy settings on your social media accounts so only those you personally know can see what you’re posting; and • Protect your computer with security software. Our Department is also tracking Department of Defense warnings that those affiliated with the military are being targeted by terrorist groups via social media. Know that those monitoring our agency social media channels have been trained in Operational Security, and are taking measures to ensure we’re sharing photos and infor- mation in a safe and secure way. I’m proud of our leadership to address this growing threat. We’ve made great strides, and with your help – we further enhance our ability to prevent and respond to a cyberattack. Thanks! Maj. Gen. Bret Daugherty The Adjutant General Washington National Guard 4 - EVERGREEN MAGAZINE VOL.II // ISSUE 2 WASHINGTON ARMY NATIONAL GUARD THE LAND COMPONENT SERGEANT MAJOR NCO Command Sergeant Major Wayne Parker PERSPECTIVE Recognize Your Best Guardsmen, In March, Sgt. Matthew Croft and Spc. Joshua Beal took home the Washington Army National Guard’s best Non-Commissioned Officer and soldier of the year honors. They showed that they were the best of the best among the Washington National Guard. As a Command Sergeant Major, it is a great feeling to see our young soldiers and airmen stepping up and becoming tomorrow’s leaders, but I also know that due to the overall general soldier skill set required to compete at the best warrior competition that we often overlook many outstanding performers in their traditional soldier/airman jobs. We know that our Guardsmen are doing some incredible things, both at their units and in the com- munity, every day. It’s time we start giving them some praise. That’s why I’m excited to announce that starting this month, we will be giving a monthly award for the Washington National Guard’s best soldier and airman of the month. This process will afford every soldier and airman the opportunity to be recognized in front of not just leadership, but their peers in the enlisted ranks, pushing them to also do their best. Each month the senior enlisted leaders will go over the nominations and pick the winners. The soldier and airman winners will be featured on the Washing- ton National Guard’s social media and be awarded throughout the year with different opportunities. We want to show the best members in our formations that we as leaders recognize their contributions to our organization and that we appreciate everything they do!

The new 81,000 square-foot facility, called the Pierce County Readiness Center, will provide guardsmen from multiple units a new facility to perform their full-time and traditional duties, in- cluding critical training to help prepare for state and national disasters. “This is truly a great day for the Washington National Guard and the soldiers of the 96th Troop Command,” said Major General Bret D. Daugherty, The Adjutant General in charge of the Washington National Guard.
