Join us for a great discussion with Aaron Heft, currently serving as a SFC in the Army National Guard. Aaron works as a unit historian with the Army National Guard\\u2019s Leader Development program, where he uses lessons from the past to train and prepare today\\u2019s soldiers for the battlefield.\\xa0

He joins us to discuss the American 28th \\u201cKeystone\\u201d Division in World War I, a unit of primarily Pennsylvania National Guardsmen of which Aaron is currently a member. This talk will not be exclusively about the 28th\\u2019s time in the Meuse-Argonne, so you will hear about some other battles and engagements elsewhere along the Western Front.\\xa0
