Fort Jackson’s Garrison welcomed Com-mand Sgt. Maj. Anthony J. Wilson, as its newest senior enlisted leader Tuesday in a change of responsibility ceremony at Victory Field.

Wilson took responsibility for Fort Jack-son’s Garrison from Command Sgt. Maj. John P. Drawbond Jr. during the event reviewed by Col. Stephen Elder, Garrison commander.

Elder praised Wilson for the experience he will bring to Fort Jackson.

Elder met Wilson at Joint Base San Anto-nio when they were both attending the Gar-rison Leaders Course.

“I could tell right away we would be happy” to have Wilson be the senior enlisted leader for Fort Jackson’s Garrison, Elder said.

Wilson brings a vast skillset to Fort Jack-son. He entered the Army in 1991 as an 11C – Indirect Fire Infantryman, but in 1995 re-� ��[\��;�� X��-�� ;�%��]^��;�_��X��Specialist today. He deployed four times to combat zones including one tour to Afghani-stan in support of Operation Enduring Free-dom and three tours to Iraq in support of Op-eration Iraqi Freedom. His last assignment was as the senior enlisted leader of Head-quarters and Headquarters Battalion, U.S. Army North, Joint-Base Fort Sam Houston, Texas.

Elder said it was “great” to have an 11-se-ries at Fort Jackson.

“Your reputation has preceded you,” he added.

During his brief comments during the ceremony, Wilson said he will be giving

“100 percent” every day. While the Garrison Commander wel-

comed Wilson to the fold, he also bid fare-well to Drawbond who had been through “two hurricanes, Victory Block Leave, a tree lighting ceremony, boxing smoker and a Centennial Celebration under his belt” be-fore Elder took command.

Elder praised Drawbond’s quiet demean-or and behind-the-scenes tenacity.

“It didn’t matter the case, he cared and he made a difference,” Elder said.

“Command Sgt. Maj. Drawbond you did well,” he added. “Thank you very much.”

Drawbond thanked Fort Jackson for the support they gave him in his last speech as the Garrison’s senior enlisted leader.

“Thank you for treating me well,” he said. “I hope you extend it to Command Sgt. Maj. Wilson as well.”

For Pvts. Justin Adkins, and Caleb Tran-sue of Echo Company, 3rd Battalion, 34th Infantry Regiment, dancing to the music was a natural way to blow off steam before head-ing to the penultimate event before gradua-tion.

Pvt. Darrin Doyle with Alpha Company, 3-34, said the “amazing” concert was a way to “get away from the drill sergeants a little bit and get to listen to some good music.”

Soldiers weren’t the only ones having fun at the celebration; Family members and patrons from across the Midlands joined to-gether for a good time too.

For Melissa Wyatt, a big Sarah Evans fan, the celebration made her “feel happy” to be able to listen to Evans live.

Tammy Cova-Gonzalez came a long way to see the concert. Cova-Gonzalez traveled from New Jersey to Fort Jackson to visit her brother serving here.

“I’m having a great time,” she said. “It was an added bonus to meet my brother and listen to a concert.”

Team Jackson, it is imperative the Fort Jackson community be able to get the lat-est emergency messages. One way to do that is through the AtHoc system.

The system will email, text and call recipients to notify them of emergencies, inclement weather and other information to keep Fort Jackson safe.

Each service member should be able to log in to the self-service portal using their CAC while logged into a comput-er. The address to the self-service portal is (https://warnings.army.mil/SelfSer-vice/2026347).

Once the service member clicks on the link they will be prompted to com-plete their account. They can utilize the dropdowns and specify their duty status, district, and installation. Their Depart-

ment of Defense ID number will populate automatically in the username, display ��#��$�� +��$�� "�� populate.

Once all of the information is complet-ed the registrant can save their account by clicking Save in the upper right corner. It is best to put as much information as pos-sible to receive AtHoc.

Using a personal cell numbers in text messaging will send alerts to a personal phones. If the registrant put a home phones in or a cell in Phone Family, alerts will be sent by text to the cell and a call will be sent to the home phone.

Once registered users can also go back to this address to edit their account if changes are required. For more informa-tion or help signing up for AtHoc call Ra-mon Domenech at 751-4621 or via email at [email protected].

In 1973, as the draft ended and America withdrew from Vietnam, the Army made it a priority to catch and keep the technological edge in weapons and equipment – setting up the forma-tion of Training and Doctrine Com-mand and Forces Command.

As America’s defense policy reori-ented, the Army underwent a thorough modernization of its combat arms and aviation units through training reform, weapons, equipment, and force mod-ernization, and revising doctrine at the

beginning phases of a new strategic or-der.

It was, and still is, imperative that the Army keep its technological edge in weapons and equipment against our near-peer competitors. “Our competi-tors are seeking to alter global strategic �� %��"��#� �� the expense of the U.S. interests and those of our allies and partners,” Sec-retary of the Army Mark Esper said in his opening statement March 20 to the House Appropriations Committee on the posture of the U.S. Army.

VisionContinued from Page 19

The Army’s current competitive advan-tage is in its Soldiers’ ability to rapidly deploy anywhere, anytime, and producing a combat-credible deterrent against poten-tial adversaries.

While a great advantage to have, Esper stated in the posture hearing that “some of the key challenges, and the Army’s in par-�� #� �� then implementing them.”

Over the past 30-plus years, the M1 �"��'#��^��(�� vehicles, the UH-60 Blackhawk and AH-64 Apache helicopters, and the MIM-104 Patriot air defense missile were developed �� (��#�the Army ceased to innovate, and with a large decrease in readiness, this technolo-gy has become outdated and overmatched.

+�� #�as laid out by Secretary Esper in a speech at the Brookings Institute June 5, is that the Army of 2028 will be ready to deploy, �� %�� -versary, anytime and anywhere, in a joint, �� !��#� ��!�� #�while simultaneously deterring others and maintaining its ability to conduct irregular %��=��<��%� �� "� �� #@��-per said.

To do this, The Army cannot look back 30 years, but instead must look forward in ��"� ��#��#��#��lead future Soldiers. Trusting and empow-ering subordinate leaders will facilitate both reform and greater performance. “We need to tap the talent of all the American people,” said Esper. “We need to reach out to traditional industry and non-traditional” to forge the road ahead.

“We have to change the character of warfare in our favor,” the secretary added, outlining his six priorities for Army mod-ernization: Long-Range Precision Fires, ��Y�Q��"�� #�� #� ��%��'#� �� Defense, and Soldier Lethality.

The current global security challenges are growing and the Army can prepare itself by increasing capacity, training, im-proving and correcting critical gaps result-ing in a far more lethal Army, ready now and prepared for the future. As Esper said, =U�� We must now build the Army of 2028.”
