About 500 members of the Massachusetts National Guard were deployed to Washington for Wednesday s inauguration of President Joe Biden.
Among them was Adams Police Sgt. Dylan Hicks, a first lieutenant who commands Alpha Company 1-181 IN, a light infantry company based out of Agawam.
Hicks, 28, didn t have much time to prepare after learning that his company would be headed to the Capitol to provide security at the inauguration. I had less than 24 hours to pack up and leave, said Hicks, who still is in Washington. Everyone was given different missions and tasks when arriving.
Alpha Company 1-181 IN is made up of mostly residents of Western Massachusetts and Berkshire County, which includes 2nd Lt. and Dalton native Emily Jordan.
