JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Wash. - The 1st Special Forces Group (Airborne) commander and command sergeant major, Col. Ryan Ehrler and Command Sgt. Maj. Daniel Orosco, lay a wreath in front of the 1st SFG (A) Memorial Wall at Joint Base Lewis McChord, Wash., Dec. 7, 2020, in remembrance of and to honor special operations soldiers who gave their lives while freeing the oppressed. Menton Week celebrates the Special Forces heritage, as its predecessor was the First Special Service Force, which disbanded in Menton, France at the end of World War II on Dec. 5, 1944. The unit, commonly referred to as the “Devils Brigade,” is credited with a distinguished record of unconventional operations behind enemy lines. (U.S. Army photos by Pfc.
