“To witness this ceremony was moving, however to receive this recognition was truly memorable,” Gonzalez said. “We are proud to have witnessed such an amazing ceremony and support these soldiers.”

A change of command is a military tradition that represents a formal transfer of authority and responsibility for a unit from one commanding or flag officer to another. The passing of colors, standards or ensigns from an outgoing commander to an incoming one ensures that the unit and its soldiers is never without official leadership.

Laredo College wants to congratulate and feel very honored to have formed part of this memorable ceremony where the newly assigned leaders will continue to demonstrate professionalism, competence, allegiance and trust.
