    Utah Army National Guard Leadership of the 97th Troop Command in change of command ceremony April 21, 2024 at 640th Regional Training Institute Headquarters, Camp Williams, Bluffdale, UT. The Change of Command ceremony is deeply rooted in American military history dating back to the 18th Century. During that time, organizational flags were developed with color arrangements and symbols unique to each unit. The flag served as a rallying point and reminder of their allegiance to their leader during battle. To this flag and its commander, military members dedicated their loyalty and trust. Because of its symbolic nature, when a change of command took place, the flag was passed to the individual assuming command in the presence of the entire unit.
