Atlanta, January 24, 2007 -- Brigadier General Maria Britt, Army Guard Commanding General, was recognized as one of Georgia Trend Magazine's most notable people for 2007. Britt was honored for her service in the military at a luncheon held at Ritz-Carlton Hotel January 24.
Britt, who was promoted to Brigadier General and took command of the Georgia Army National Guard in December, will also be the cover story in the March issue of Georgia Trend as one of ten Georgia women who have reached the pinnacle of their careers in their chosen profession.
"This is an honor I accept on behalf of all men and women in the Guard," said Britt at the luncheon attended by Governor Perdue and a large number of business and civic leaders in Georgia. "It is my responsibility as a leader to promote both the military and the Guard and for people to see me as a role model for all women in the military."
The General was also recently showcased in the January issue of the National Guard periodical, GX Magazine.
