Capt. Marc Eskew, outgoing commander of Operations Company, Headquarters and Headquarters Battalion, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), 1st Sgt. Robert Dicks, the senior noncommissioned officer for Ops. Co., and Capt. Evelyn Gutierrez, incoming Ops. Co. commander, prepare for the passing of the guidon at a change of command ceremony in Erbil, Iraq, June 27, 2016. Ops. Co.’s mission includes running the mayor’s and strike cells at Life Support Area Danger in support of Combined Joint Forces Land Component Command – Operation Inherent Resolve. “The change of command ceremony is a time honored tradition, it is a formal transfer of authority, responsibility and accountability of command from one individual to another,” said Lt. Col. Nikolaus Guran, the HHB commander. “It represents the continuity of command and of the Operations Company mission.” (U.S. Army Photo by Staff Sgt. Peter J. Berardi)
