The exercise provided 12 members of the Rapid City-based unit with realistic training opportunities that support the mission of a public affairs detachment. The 129th trained alongside Eighth Army public affairs staff during the multinational training exercise that enhances U.S. and ROK forces' operational capabilities to increase alliance readiness, protect the region and maintain stability on the Korean Peninsula. "The purpose of the exercise is for Soldiers to focus on why they're here and also on the mission," said Sgt. Maj. Chris Seaton, sergeant major for Eighth Army Public Affairs Office. "This is the way we refine our processes. We've got a plan in place for how we will fight if there is a crisis or contingency that we have to get involved with." The command post exercise provides for scenarios that may occur for military forces on the Korean Peninsula. Those participating include ROK allies as well as U.S. components of the Army, Navy, Marines and Air Force. "Key Resolve provided the unit with an opportunity to train overseas on our mission essential and key collective tasks while operating at a multinational, jointservice component level," said Maj. Anthony Deiss, commander of the 129th MPAD. Deiss said the unit was able to interact and function with their active-duty counterparts at a strategic level and integrate into operational processes involving real-world scenarios. "We were able to facilitate a media operations center, issue public affairs guidance, provide news media and press conference training for key leadership," said Deiss. "We also developed press releases, video news segments, social media messaging, tracked media embeds on the battlefield and provided daily media analysis. These are some of the core functions an MPAD needs to be able to do." For the unit to perform effectively, it takes Soldiers who are trained and competent.

Kayla Morris 129th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment 6 7 rakes A new video showcases three South Dakota retail employees with disabilities and their employers. The video focuses on the varied roles the employees play in the businesses, and demonstrates that their disabilities do not affect their ability to do a job and do it well. In 2016, the South Dakota Retailers Association (SDRA) was one of three business organizations in the nation selected to participate in a U.S. Department of Labor Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) pilot project aimed at increasing workplace inclusion of people with disabilities. Through this program, called "Getting Down to Business" SDRA teamed up with the South Dakota Department of Human Services and the South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation to provide information to employers on hiring people with disabilities. The video is the culmination of that effort and features Jami Beck and Chris Peterson of Beck Motor Company in Pierre, Gary Cammack and Lyle Spring of Cammack Ranch Supply in Union Center, and Kevin Nyberg and Kevin Olinger of Nyberg's Ace in Sioux Falls. Other undertakings included establishing a pilot internship program at Hy-Vee in Brookings, presenting seminars and webinars, developing printed and online materials to assist employers, and publishing articles about businesses that employ people with disabilities. “When we started the pilot project, we wanted to link employers with the resources they need to find and hire qualified people with disabilities,” said SDRA Executive Director Shawn Lyons. “But more importantly, we wanted employers to see that the business benefits when employers are inclusive in their hiring. This video focuses on three types of business in three different areas of the state, and shows employees whose work has proven to be vital to the success of their employer.” “The Getting Down to Business Pilot Project has created awareness throughout the state about those who have disabilities that need jobs, that are looking for jobs,” Kevin Nyberg of Nyberg’s Ace in Sioux Falls 4
