Wayne Porter, a U.S. Army veteran who was assigned to the 11th Airborne Division before its deactivation in 1958, places an 11th Airborne Div. shoulder sleeve insignia on Spc. Jihad Yarber, assigned to the 2nd Brigade, 11th Airborne Division, during the reflagging ceremony of the 11th Airborne Division, June 6, 2022, at Pershing Parade Field, Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska. The activation returns the historic 11th Airborne Division to an active Army role, with a focus on operations in extreme cold weather and mountainous high-altitude environments. The ceremonies at Fort Wainwright and Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson reflagged the 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division and the 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), 25th Infantry Division, into the 1st and 2nd brigade combat teams, 11th Airborne Division, respectively.
