Commander rear for the 66 artillery regiment Major Appiah Sappong said the visit of the General officer commanding of the southern zone was a morale boost to the officers.
He said that the regiment has added 300 officers and 349 other ranking members. Major Sappong suggested that the number of troops posted to the regiment from the training school be increased as the regiment is currently understaffed with a deficiency of 20 officers and 377 men.
The General and his team also visited Krachi West and Alavanyo.
