Technology is amazing! I just love the fact that theTransfer of Authority took place and hours later the families of the HHBn were looking at the pictures of their soldiers. It is so awesome to see our guys in pictures so soon after an event. I can't imagine what families of soldiers in previous wars went through - they would go months without hearing from their soldier's much less seeing pictures of them. I feel extremely blessed.
Here is a note from my husband to the families back here at Hood:
Hello from Afghanistan! Task Force Maverick assumed authority for the mission in Regional Command East today from Task Force Gladiator, 101st Airborne (Air Assault). The transfer of authority ceremony included the cavalry flair of the
First Team Band who played the 'Yellow of Rose of Texas' in honor of our families at Fort Hood. Standing in formation were troopers of the 1st Cavalry Division Signal Company and Intelligence & Sustainment Company, as well as
the 101st Intelligence & Sustainment Company. The transfer of authority comes after a year of hard training and nearly a month of learning the ropes from the outgoing unit. We're confident and ready! Mavericks!
Hubby (OK, no he didn't really sign it that way! ;o)
