, October 13,
The President of the United
States has reposed special trust and
confidence in the patriotism, valor,
fidelity and abilities of Matthew G.
Thorn.
“In view of these qualities and
demonstrated potential for increased
responsibility, you are therefore,
authorized to wear the uniform and
insignia of Sergeant Major, effective
12 July 2023, by order of the Governor
of South Dakota. Signed Jeffrey
P. Marlette, Major General, South
Dakota National Guard, The Adjutant
General.”
SGM Matthew G. Thorn is a
native of Glasgow, MT and he enlisted
in the Army in July 1990 as a Motor
Transport Operator.
He attended basic training,
advanced individual training at Fort
Dix New Jersey, and earned the MOS
of transportation specialist (88M).
MSG Thorn has served in
multiple positions throughout his
career. His assignments include,
Motor Transport Operator, Bridge
Crew Member, Section Leader,
COMSEC Custodian, Platoon
Sergeant, Ammunition Logistics For those of us who enjoyed watching Mathew Thorn growing up and
Specialist, Company Operations playing sports — he was a darn good wrestler for the Scotties — we knew
him as “Foo”. Quite a cute little story behind it, when he was born, his older
NCO, Bridge Training Team NCOIC,
brother Chris couldn’t say “Matthew” and it always came out “Foo”! The
BN Operations Sergeant, G3 Training nickname stuck. But here is MSG Thorn at right with his 28-year-old son
