This past Thursday, on Cooper Field, the 1st Cavalry Division officially welcomed Command Sgt. Maj. Christopher R. Carey as its 35th senior enlisted advisor during a tradition-rich change of responsibility ceremony.

He assumes responsibility from Command Sgt. Maj. LeVares J. Jackson Sr., who is retiring after over 30 years of dedicated service to our nation. Command Sgt. Maj. Jackson was also celebrated by his colleagues, friends and family at a retirement ceremony following the change of responsibility.

"You have taken care of me, and you have upheld the 1st Cavalry Division standard, and I believe in that," said Jackson to the Troopers in formation. "Thank you so much."

Maj. Gen. Thomas M. Feltey, commanding general of the 1st Cavalry Division, praised both leaders during the event. Speaking on Carey taking the reins, he noted, โ€œHe knows this Division, he knows our Troopers, he knows our culture. He is a proven warfighter, an experienced leader, and a trusted steward of Army standards.โ€

After acccepting the division colors, Carey addressed the formation: "I will give everything I have to make sure this division remains ready, lethal, disciplined, and cared for.โ€

Welcome back to the First Team, Command Sgt. Maj. Carey, and congratulations on your well-deserved retirement, Command Sgt. Maj Jackson!
