FORT BRAGG, N.C. (USASOC News Service, Nov. 29, 2005) — North Carolina’s only major Army Command announced a change of command ceremony for Tuesday, Dec. 6, at Meadows Memorial Parade Field here.
At the ceremony, Lt. Gen. Philip R. Kensinger, Jr., hands over the reins of command for the U.S. Army Special Operations Command to Lt. Gen. Robert W. Wagner, the current acting commanding general of the U.S. Joint Forces Command in Norfolk, Va.
