Lt. Col. Tobin Magsig (left), the commander of the 1st Battalion (Airborne), 501st Infantry Regiment, 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), 25th Infantry Division, presents Command Sgt. Maj. Bernie Knight (center), retired, with the ceremonial Tomahawk and charges him as the Honorary Command Sergeant Major of the battalion during an Honorary Command Sergeant Major Induction Ceremony at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska July 14, 2014. The honorary command sergeant major serves as the link between all members in the battalion currently serving and those who have served before. The Tomahawk symbolizes the lethal force of the NCO Corps necessary to complete the mission, as well as resembles a primitive ice pick to reinforce the battalion’s additional requirement for arctic proficiency.
