It’s all thumbs up, fist bumps and smiles from the bosses! Approximately 100 local employers and supervisors traveled to Gowen Field from across the state on July 18 to participate in the Idaho Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve’s annual Boss Lift. 

While at Gowen Field, employers learned about the mission of the Idaho Army and Air National Guards and the Army, Marine and Navy Reserves. The day began with a welcome from Adjutant General Maj. Gen. Tim Donnellan and the command team of the Idaho National Guard.

“We are incredibly grateful for the support from Idaho’s employers and ESGR,” said Donnellan. “Boss Lift provides a valuable opportunity to highlight our missions in the Idaho National Guard and Reserve and to thank the employers and community members who contribute to our mission readiness.”
 
As part of Boss Lift, Guardsmen and Reservists invited their employers to spend a day in their boots receiving hands-on equipment demonstrations, participating in military training simulators and getting an up-close look at aircraft and other military equipment used by Idaho National Guard units for training and deployments.

Employers also received familiarization flights to see some of Idaho from above in a UH-60M Black Hawk or in a KC-135R Stratotanker while it refueled an Idaho Air National Guard A-10 Thunderbolt II in the air.
