"1st Battalion, 1st Air Defense Artillery Regiment is home to some of the Army's finest Soldiers and air defenders," said Lt. Col. RaShaun Warren, deputy commander of the 38th Air Defense Artillery Brigade. "Our Soldiers have trained relentlessly, and I have no doubt they will surpass all expectations as they deploy in support of USCENTCOM."
