The Intelligencer has an article about a local PA Guard soldier preparing to deploy with the 56th SBCT. The 56th is on leave right now, but will be deploying to Iraq in the new year.
Army National Guard Sgt. Richard Brauer is looking forward to being in Iraq in January.
For now, though, the 23-year-old Bedminster man is happy to be home with his family and boxer dog, Joe.
Brauer and thousands of other members of the 56th Stryker Brigade activated in September received 10 days leave after months of training at Camp Shelby, Miss., and Fort Polk, La.
