Also in attendance were Mr Donald Tapia, US Ambassador to Jamaica, Lieutenant General Rocky Meade, Chief of Defence Staff, Lieutenant Colonel Blair Waddington, Vice-President of the Caribbean Military Academy, a cadre of Officers and Warrant Officers, JDF soldiers and their families, as well as over eight thousand family members, friends and well-wishers.
