A delegation from Vietnam joins Oregon National Guard leadership and other participants for a group photo during the State Partnership Program Workshop, held April 17-19 at the Sheraton Airport Hotel in Portland, Ore.  The Oregon National Guard hosted a delegation from Vietnam, April 14-19, and visited various facilities throughout Oregon.  The workshop itself included experts in several fields including academics, economics, port and maritime security, search and rescue, and humanitarian aid. The partnership between the Oregon National Guard and Vietnam was made official in November 2012, which pairs emerging democracies with National Guard states. Oregon currently has both Vietnam and Bangladesh as its state partners.  Photo by Sgt. April Davis, Oregon Military Department Public Affairs.
