British Army Brig. Gen. Andrew Ridland, deputy commanding general for maneuver of the 1st Armored Division, passes the brigade colors to U.S. Army Col. John Collins, incoming commander of the Combat Aviation Brigade, 1st Armored Division, during the Transformation of Command ceremony at Fort Bliss, Texas, June 25, 2026. The exchange of colors follows a long‑standing Army tradition symbolizing the commander’s responsibility for the unit. The 1st Armored Division Combat Aviation Brigade’s Transformation of Command ceremony marks a pivotal restructuring as leaders transition across the formation. The deactivation of 3rd Squadron, 6th Air Cavalry Regiment, and 2nd Battalion, 501st Aviation Regiment, General Support Aviation Battalion, underscores the brigade’s continued commitment to the Army Structure (ARSTRUC) initiative and the strength of today’s Iron Eagles.
