ESGR aids guardsmen and Roswell employers since 1972
The Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve helps guardsmen and reserve personnel keep jobs during deployments. Since 1972 ESGR spread from Don Bartlett’s efforts to New Mexico, reaching Roswell by 1983, with ongoing ties to local employers and volunteers like Capt Randall Bates and Nellie Daniel. The program, working under the DoD, aims to educate employers on duties and protections while supporting veterans returning home.
