Guam - Over the weekend Lieutenant Colonel Romeo Delfin assumed command of the Guam Army National Guard's 1st Battalion, 294th Infantry Regiment. He replaces Lieutenant Colonel Michael Tougher who commanded Guam Guard's largest element with nearly 600 troops in Afghanistan throughout 2013.  Delfin relinquishes his latest command of recruiting and retention.  He served as 294th executive officer before Tougher's leadership.

He says, "I'm confident, but I am humbled. I'm extremely confident because we have great soldiers."
