NY Army National Guard Major Amy Crounse, a South Glens Falls resident, recognized for service
Latham, NY (05/03/2019) — New York Army National Guard Major Amy Crounse, a Glens Falls resident, was recently recognized for her service with the New York Army National Guard's Military Personnel Office from Sept. 2018 to April 2019 while serving as deputy personnel officer.
During her service with the military personnel office, Crounse helped plan new educational initiatives for National Guard Soldiers, updated office policies, and developed a new military retirement guide.
She will not be attending the Army's resident Intermediate Leader Education program at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. After the year-long course she will become the Officer in Charge of the New York National Guard's State Partnership Program.
The state partnership program pairs state National Guards in military training and exchange programs with the military forces of other countries. New York has partnerships with the Republic of South Africa and Brazil.
Crounse was awarded a trophy by Lt. Col. James Cahill, the director of military personnel, during a ceremony on May 2.
