Reinert takes command of the 88th RSC
Maj. Gen. Peter Lennon, U.S. Army Reserve commanding general for support, passes the 88th Regional Command colors to Maj. Gen. Patrick J. Reinert during a change of command ceremony on Fort McCoy, Wis., Dec. 4. As part of military tradition, this act symbolizes the passing of responsibility and authority for the command to him and entrusts him with the welfare of the command. “Today is a day we celebrate two great leaders – we celebrate an organization, we celebrate our country,” said Lennon. “It’s also a day to say thank you. Thank you to the organization, thank you to the Soldiers, civilians, contractors, and the families who support them to make this country great.”
