FORT BELVOIR, Va. - Virginia National Guard leadership hosts Lt. Gen. Pasi Välimäki, commander of the Finnish Army, during a bilateral engagement, Oct 12, 2024, at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. The visit was conducted in support of the Department of Defense’s State Partnership Program, in which Virginia and Finland became partners earlier in 2024. The visit, hosted at the National Museum of the United States Army, reaffirmed the bilateral commitment between the VNG’s 29th Infantry Division and their Finnish Army partners, and provided a roadmap for joint engagement between Soldiers of the 29th and the Finnish Army.
