Schmitz’s main responsibility is supporting the local community members by working in unfilled positions that need manning. To his family back home, he said, “I love helping the community, every life I’ve saved is a part of my life that’s been saved.” Schmitz is ready to provide a helping hand to the community of Detroit. Northern Command, through Army North, remains committed to providing continued, flexible Department of Defense support to the Federal Emergency Management Agency as part of the whole-of-government response to COVID-19.
