The primary focus is to promote and communicate with the public, the mission of the Tennessee State Guard, Military Department of Tennessee. The function of Public Affairs is to build and to maintain a positive image of the Tennessee State Guard.
Every unit has a particular image.
It is based upon character, integrity, and total performance of the command. It consists of every contact that the unit has with it's various publics. The familiarity and reputation of it's name are two of the greatest assets of any military organization. The prominence of a name indicates success because of good reputation rarely can be won with true accomplishments. This has direct bearing on recruiting and retention in the Tennessee State Guard.
