BEND, Ore. (AP) — The Oregon National Guard is holding a demobilization ceremony Sunday in Bend for more than 400 soldiers returning from Iraq.

They are among the 2,700 soldiers from the guard’s 41st Infantry Brigade Combat Team returning this month from deployments.

Meanwhile, about 200 members from an Oregon National Guard Engineer Battalion at Salem have received orders to deploy in December for a year in Afghanistan.
