    U.S. Army Col. Jason Gracida, Brigade Commander. Addresses the troops of 1-221 Cavalry during the 'turning blue' ceremony at Clark County Armory in Las Vegas, Nevada. Apr. 12, 2026. The transition from a mounted cavalry formation to a mobile infantry battalion reflects a Department of Defense initiative to convert armored units into more agile formations, replacing tanks with infantry squad vehicles to increase mobility and operational flexibility.
