CAMP ARIFJAN, Kuwait – The 35th Infantry Division cased their colors and transferred command of the Task Force Spartan mission to the 28th Infantry Division during a transfer-of-authority ceremony here Nov. 20, 2022.
The transfer of authority ceremony is a military tradition that represents the handoff of responsibility from one command to another in order to maintain continuity on the battlefield. Every command in the U.S. Army is represented by a distinctive flag known as “colors”. The casing and uncasing of colors during the ceremony derives from military tradition that originated centuries ago so Soldiers on the battlefield could recognize and follow their unit’s colors into battle.
