Topeka is saying goodbye to one special group of visitors. Members
of the Department of Armenian Ministry of Defense are finishing up
their visit to the Capitol City. The two met with Kansas Adjutant
General Tod Bunting Monday morning.
The group came to familiarize the Armenian Ministry of Defense with
the U.S. military’s wartime and peacetime methods. But the Adjutant
General says the learning went both ways.
"Like us, they have a country that has a lot of severe weather and
emergencies, so they keep their public informed on what to do and what
they’re going to be doing in an event of an emergency. So we learned
from them you don’t have to be high-tech and fancy, you just need to
keep people informed and tell them what’s going on and what to do,
says Adjutant General Tod Bunting.
Kansas became a partner with the Republic of Armenia in 2003.
