2006 Unity Day

The New Jersey National Guard celebrated its Eighth Unity Day on June 15 at Joint Force Headquarters - New Jersey at Fort Dix. The theme for Unity Day 2006 was "Passport to Diversity." Maj. Gen. Glenn K. Rieth, The Adjutant General of New Jersey was the keynote speaker.

Unity Day was conceived when Col. Jorge Martinez suggested bringing together all the separate special emphasis celebrations. This enables all cultures to be recognized.

This year's program began with a 5K walk/run, a drill team demonstration by the New Jersey National Guard ChalleNGe Youth Academy cadets and bagpipers. Miss USO 2006 Stacie Wells, sang for the celebrants and there were multi-cultural displays.
