The 39th Transportation Battalion (MC) conducted a change of command ceremony Feb. 26, 2019, at the Armstrong Club, Vogelweh, Kaiserslautern, Germany, recognizing U.S. Army Lt. Col. William R. Kost, as the outgoing battalion commander, and welcoming U.S. Army Lt. Col. Brandon H. Ungetheim, as the incoming battalion commander. The change of command ceremony is an event build on tradition, symbolism, and heritage. The key to the ceremony is the passing of the colors, which is a symbol of authority, representing his/her responsibilities to the organization. The passing of the colors symbolizes the transfer of authority from the outgoing commander to the incoming commander.
