Lt. Gen. Christopher Donahue, commander of XVIII Airborne Corps, Maj. Gen. JP McGee, outgoing commander of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), and Maj. Gen. Brett Sylvia, incoming commander, watch the division colors come together during the division Change of Command ceremony at Fort Campbell, Ky., July 20, 2023. The change of command ceremony is a tradition where the outgoing commander symbolically relinquishes command and authority by passing the division’s colors to the presiding officer, who then hands the colors to the incoming commander, thus beginning a new era of leadership for the incoming commander and the division as a whole.
