The "Colonel of the Regiment" …
Several years ago, I was introduced by one of my advisors to MG Donald C. Hilbert, US Army (Ret.) who at one point was the Commander of the 3d Infantry Regiment – The Old Guard and later commanded the Military District of Washington. He was kind enough to introduce me to The Old Guard Association. This paved the way for me to further my knowledge of the oldest infantry regiment in the US Army.
I once again visited with MG Hilbert the last week in January and once again I was allowed some time with him to review the progress I’d made, the work I’m now doing and present him with an autographed version of “The Old Guard on Parade – 2009″ calendar.
It’s through his support and encouragement along with the rest of my mentors/advisors/supporters that I continue my ongoing mission of “Preserving the memories so others will remember…” ™
Thank you General for your time & support!
