The outgoing family readiness group team, Mrs. Lori and Sgt. Michael Crabtree served as the 1191st Engineer Company for two years. Their efforts during the last two years have greatly contributed to increased involvement from family members and outside organizations and have fostered a great working relationship from the unit and other government organizations in Scioto County. The family readiness group has created two annual events that have drawn the community to the Soldiers – the 1191st “Freedom Ride” and the 1191st “Cruise-in.”
Under the leadership of Capt. Dion Goins and 1st Sgt. Kenneth White, the 1191st Engineer Company plans, coordinates, and sustains operations of engineer units in mobility, counter mobility and survivability as well as general horizontal engineering missions. The 1191st family readiness group is a key component of mission readiness. It is a command-sponsored organization of family members, volunteers, organizations, and Soldiers that together support and assist the unit and its Soldiers. “Ready Families, anytime, anywhere!” is a key focus of the 1191st family readiness group. |
