Col. Richard Duncan, right, chief of staff, <strong>New</strong> <strong>Hampshire</strong> Army <strong>National</strong> <strong>Guard</strong>, receives a shadow box<br />

from Col. Bryan Clements upon the occasion of his retirement April 4 at Joint Force Headquarters in<br />

Concord. Duncan was also awarded the Legion of Merit from Brig. Gen. Craig Bennett, commander of the<br />

<strong>New</strong> <strong>Hampshire</strong> Army <strong>National</strong> <strong>Guard</strong>. “As a soldier, Col. Duncan dedicated himself to the most ancient and<br />

noble of professions,” said Brig. Gen. Bennett. “In doing so, he succeeded in every turn.” Duncan was<br />

quick to mention the tireless support of his family in his closing remarks. He advised the force to always<br />

serve the families of <strong>Guard</strong> members with care. “When families are taken care of, when they are happy, the<br />

soldier can do his job,” Duncan said. Photo by Spc. Karin Leach<br />
