OKLAHOMA CITY - Sgt. Lorelei Hubbard, an administrative noncommissioned officer assigned to the Oklahoma Army National Guard Recruiting and Retention Battalion, uses an artificial intelligence tool to rapidly determine award eligibility for a National Guard member at the Recruiting and Retention Battalion headquarters in Oklahoma City on June 17, 2026. The AI tool, developed by Staff Sgt. Herbert Hailey, improves the awards review process, saving hundreds of hours of manual review per Soldier, and could potentially save the Oklahoma Army National Guard more than 60,000 hours when applied across the force.
