Frankfort, KY – More than sixty Kentucky National Guardsmen, including one Murray man are back from a year-long mission in Afghanistan. Captain Jeremy Ballard and 63 others were welcomed back at a ceremony this morning in Frankfort. The unit operated as Agribusiness Development Team One, tasked with helping Afghan farmers become agriculturally self-sufficient. The group of Army National Guard Soldiers and Air National Guard Airmen completed more than 300 successful agriculture projects with no casualties. Kentucky's second Agribusiness Development Team took over operations in Afghanistan last week.
