Col. Scott Jackson (left), commander, 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team “Spartans,” 3rd Infantry Division, passes the brigade’s cased colors to Brig. Gen. James Blackburn, commander, Task Force Marne, 3rd ID, during the Spartan Brigade's inactivation ceremony held here Jan. 15. The 2nd ABCT was chosen to be one of the many brigades that would be inactivated throughout the Army in order to meet the nation’s call to downsize. While the 2nd ABCT in its current heavy configuration is going away, the 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, 3rd ID, is slated to reflag as 2nd IBCT “Spartans” in the summer of this year and to carry on the Spartan legacy of excellence.
