Col. James Lefavor hosts high-ranking Paraguayan officers and their aides on April 16, 2014 as they visit Otis Air National Guard base during their week-long trip to Massachusetts. Maj. Gen. Carlos Antonio Caballero Maidana and Brig. Gen. Aparicio Diego Zarate Vidal, of the Paraguayan Army and Air Force, were visiting Massachusetts as part of the State Partnership Program. The National Guard program pairs a state's National Guard with the armed forces or equivalent of a partner country in a cooperative, mutually beneficial relationship.
