Fort Benning has a new garrison commander. Col. Matthew Scalia received the unit colors from Col. Clinton Cox in the presence of the Maneuver Center of Excellence in front of its headquarters in a Change of Command Ceremony.
The passing of the colors is an act signifying the transfer of command from one commander to another and is officiated by a higher ranked officer or a senior director.
The ultimate mission of the garrison is to provide base operations, public works, and family support programs for Soldiers and their Families. These services include morale, welfare and recreation; education services; food and laundry services; religious support; fire and emergency services and residential housing.
