Army Chief of Staff GEN Randy A. George and Sergeant Major of the Army Michael R. Weimer visited Rock Island Arsenal and the Army Sustainment Command’s Commander BG John “Brad” Hinson and the ASC team yesterday. LTG Chris Mohan, Deputy Commanding General and Acting Commander of U.S. Army Materiel Command, who officiated Hinson’s Change of Command just days ago, was also there to meet with the highest ranking officer and noncommissioned officer in the Army. This visit represented a meeting of minds and a platform to discuss how ASC and AMC are meeting the Army’s needs through delivering ready combat power through prepositioned stock and transforming how we equip and lighten the burden of our warfighters through programs like Rapid Removal of Excess (R2E). After their meeting, George took the time to recognize seven individuals from ASC and Joint Munitions Command for their hard work on behalf of the Army and AMC. Thank you to all of these great leaders for taking time out to meet with our great Soldier and Civilian Army team.

A change of command ceremony is a military tradition that has been practiced since the American Revolution. The ceremony serves as a visual representation of the formal transfer of authority and responsibility for the unit from one commander to another. On July 19, the outgoing commanding general of U.S. Army Sustainment Command, MG David Wilson, passed the colors to the incoming CG, BG John “Brad” Hinson.
