U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground (YPG) personnel were out in force at Yuma's Desert Lawn Cemetery supporting an annual memorial ceremony honoring the Bushmasters on September 28, 2024.
The ceremony honors Soldiers of the 158th Regimental Combat Team who earned international acclaim for their tenacity in jungle combat in the Pacific Theater of World War II.
Soldiers from YPG’s Airborne Test Force served as lead color guard, and YPG Commander Col. John Nelson and Command Sgt. Maj. Mark Millare participated in the customary Company L honorary roll call that concludes the ceremony.
