 Ladies and gentlemen, at this time, the official party will take their positions with the colors where the outgoing commander, Brigadier General Douglas S. Lowry, will relinquish command to Brigadier General Garrick M. Harmon. Today, the passing of the USISAC colors symbolizes the transfer of responsibility for the unit from Brigadier General Lowry to Brigadier General Harmon. With the transfer of the colors, the organization's legacy is passed as building blocks for future performance and achievement. Historically, the colors serve as the point around which soldiers of the organization rallied as they moved forward into battle. By authority of AR 600-20, paragraph 2-3, the undersigned assumes command of the United States Army Security Assistance Command, effective 17 May 2021, signed Garrick M. Harmon, Brigadier General, United States Army, commanding.
