The original commander of the 425th Brigade Special Troops Battalion (Airborne), 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), 25th Infantry Division, Col. Tom Roth (black beret), who is now with U.S. Army Alaska, and the last commander of the 425th, Lt. Col. Kevin Perera, roll up the battalion’s colors to case them, formally inactivating the battalion during the unit’s inactivation ceremony Oct. 17, 2014 at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska. The 6th Brigade Engineer Battalion (Airborne) will assume the duties of the inactivated Warrior Battalion for the Spartan Brigade.
