Brice Glasscock, an information technology technician for Rio Blanco County and a sergeant in the National Guard, has received orders for pre-mobilization. He reported for duty Wednesday and will spend the next year with an area support medical company based out of Montrose, preparing for a 12-month deployment to Afghanistan. “I’m kind of excited about doing it,” Glasscock said, who reenlisted in 2006. County employees threw him a going-away party last Friday.
