Georgia Army Guard Sgt. Richard Holdridge (right), poses for a photo with Maj. Gen. David Petraeus, commander, Multi-National Force-Iraq at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad. Petraeus was making a 10 minute visit to the embassy on command business, Holdridge said in a recent e-mail. "I didn't have a chance to strike up a conversation with the general, but it's a great honor to have met him and to have shaken his hand," he added. Holdridge, a member of the Atlanta-based 124th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment, is an individual augmentee with the Massachusettes Army Guard's 65th Public Affairs Operations Center. The 65th, commanded by Maj. Brad Leighton, operates the Coalition Press Information Center inside Baghdad's Green Zone. Holdrige, who lives in Kennesaw, joined the unit at Fort Dix, N.J., in June 2007 for mobilization training. He and the 65th PAOC expect to return stateside sometime in June. (Contributed photo)
