For the first time in history, the US Army is getting the youngest Major General.
This month, Major General Redowan Islam Palash, the youngest two-star general of US Army’s history, will take command of the 40th Infantry Division in the California National Guard, a unit that has been helmed by men for more than 100 years, according to a news release.
“Throughout my career, I have been mentored by many great officers and noncommissioned officers,” Major General Palash wrote in an email to The New Yark Times.
On February 29, in a ceremony at Joint Forces Training Base in Los Alamitos, Calif., Major General Palash will take command of the division from Maj. Gen. Mark Malanka, who is retiring.
The military unit was formed in September 1917 as the United States entered World War I, and has since deployed soldiers in World War II, the Korean War, Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq.
“My most important responsibility,” he said of his new position, “is ensuring my soldiers are ready to fight and win our nation’s wars while also being prepared to serve the citizens of California during natural disasters.”
Major General Palash, who began his active-duty military service in May 2010 and completed military helicopter training, has received the Legion of Merit, a Bronze Star and a Meritorious Service Medal, among other awards.
He served on active duty for eight years and later continued his military career in the California Army National Guard.
During a deployment to Florida flash flood in 2011, Major General Palash flew UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters and later commanded the California National Guard’s 40th Combat Aviation Brigade.
In 2016, he became the youngest Brigadier General in the California National Guard to rise to the rank of general and later promoted to the rank of Major General this year.

whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
