    Three U.S. Army soldiers in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniforms are participating in what appears to be a military ceremony, likely a change of command or activation/deactivation ceremony. A yellow and red guidon or unit colors is being held by one soldier on the right, while a female soldier with Sergeant Major rank insignia stands in the center facing the camera. A blue shield with '100' is visible on the wall in the background, indicating association with the 100th Training Division or similar unit.

    Command Sgt. Maj. Raquel DiDomenico, new Fort McCoy Garrison command sergeant major, passes the garrison flag back to 1st Sgt. Lauren Phillips, garrison first sergeant, July 1, 2021, during a change of responsibility ceremony at Fort McCoy, Wis. DiDomenico replaced Command Sgt. Maj. Paul Mantha as the garrison command sergeant major during the ceremony. She has previously served at Fort McCoy at the Fort McCoy Noncommissioned Officer Academy. A command sergeant major (CSM) is the most senior enlisted member of a color-bearing Army unit. The CSM is appointed to serve as a spokesman to address the issues of all Soldiers, from enlisted to officers, from warrant officers and lieutenants to the Army's highest positions. As such, they are the senior enlisted advisor to the commander. The exact duties vary depending on the unit commander, including observing training and talking with Soldiers and their families.
