ORLANDO, Fla. – Soldiers, friends and family members from Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 143d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary), bade farewell to their outgoing commander, 1st Lt. Justin K. Mirkovich, during a change-of-command ceremony March 4, 2017, at the David R. Wilson Armed Forces Reserve Center in Orlando, Fla.
Mirkovich’s 18-month tenure as company commander officially came to a close when he handed the unit’s guidon to Brig. Gen. Deborah L. Kotulich, commanding general, 143d ESC. Kotulich then passed the guidon to 1st Lt. Jonathan R. Clark, whose acceptance of the colors officially made him HHC’s current company commander.
Mirkovich, who enlisted in the Army as a private, received the Army Commendation Medal for his outstanding service while leading, mentoring and supporting HHC’s Soldiers, civilians and community partners.
“It has been my esteemed pleasure to serve as your commander,” Mirkovich said to the hundreds huddled in the Reserve Center’s auditorium to observe one of the U.S. Army’s oldest military traditions. “This memorable experience demonstrated that what you do has a far greater impact than what you say.”
As the former aide-de-camp for Kotulich, Clark looks forward to facing the opportunities and challenges that come with assuming command.
“It is an honor to lead this prestigious unit as we blaze new trails along the road to war,” said Clark, who began his military career as an X-ray technician in the U.S. Air Force. “The 143d ESC will continue to set the standard and demonstrate the courage, commitment and capabilities of the U.S. Army Reserve.

Just finished this Command Performance outfit for the new integrity Jem. The bodice is PVC and the skirt is made up of three layers: metallic spandex on the bottom, sheer shiny nylon in the middle and light purple tulle on the top. Her bow attaches to her head with a clear elastic band and her jewelry is handmade with glass beads. I re-used the tights from her starlight outfit. Really pleased with how this turned out! I think I`ll make the turquoise version next. Going to be hard to find fishnet material in that color though...

IMCOM-Korea holds change of command
IMCOM-Korea Region Public Affairs Office
Installation Management Command- Korea Region welcomed its new Commander and said farewell to its outgoing Commanding General during a July 2 change of command ceremony.
Colonel John Uberti accepted command of IMCOM-Korea from Brig. Gen. Al Aycock during the ceremony held inside Yongsan’s Collier Field House. Uberti is replacing Aycock as the commander of IMCOM-Korea Region, which is headquartered here. The command oversees the installation management and support structure of Army garrisons throughout the Republic of Korea .
Uberti received a warm welcome from those in attendance. During his incoming remarks, the colonel stated he would continue to uphold IMCOM-Korea’s successful policies and programs that are making a difference in the quality of life Soldiers and their Families experience while living in the ROK.
“Our Families are in many ways the true selfless servants to our Army and our nation,” Uberti said. “It is with that in mind that I pledge to continuously improve your quality of life; building on the Army Family Covenant and the many great programs the garrison teams have put in place across the peninsula.”
Uberti addressed Servicemembers in Korea, saying “IMCOM-Korea will do all we can to support you, your units and your families so you can concentrate on remaining ready to fight and win as part of the ROK-U.S. Alliance.”
Lt. Gen. Robert Wilson, Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management and Commanding General of the U.S. Army Installation Management Command, presided over the ceremony. “This Region is well-led and consists of a very dedicated and talented work force that has successfully mapped out the Region transformation while vastly improving Readiness and Quality of Life,” Wilson said. “From the DA Community Relations award to EEO, Force Protection, Community of Excellence…IMCOM-Korea Region has certainly distinguished itself throughout IMCOM and the Army.”
IMCOM-Korea has been key to supporting USFK in normalizing tours, from the establishment of Pear Blossom Cottages (facilities that offer support for non-command sponsored families who live off post) to assisting in the expansion of schools, youth services and Child Development Centers, to meet the needs of a community rapidly changing from one that was non-command sponsored to one that is,” the general said.

An intact and well preserved heavy anti-aircraft (HAA) battery to the south west of Lavernock Point, South Wales. The battery was scheduled in 1995 and is "of national importance for its potential to enhance our knowledge of World War II anti-aircraft and coastal defence practices."
It is often incorrectly described as Lavernock Fort, this anti-aircraft battery dates form the Second World War, while the coastal artillery fort, operational from 1870, is now almost completely obscured by the holiday park which now sits on the site. See my other album with images of what remains of the fort.
There were four heavy gun positions, in two pairs, each would have held a 3.7in quick firing (QF) gun. Two of the positions are the standard pattern reinforced concrete, octaganal in shape, with six ready use ammunition lockers. The remaining two positions were of simpler earth bank construction. The front (sea facing) walls of the emplacements have been fitted with steel doors to allow for depressed firing of the guns in an anti-ship role.
References are made to a 40mm Bofors gun being on site but I don't think this had a fixed position and may have either been sited on one of the 3.7in positions or in the mobile role been deployed on its road carriage.
A sunken magazine for bulk ammunition storage is between the two concrete positions, surrounded by a blast wall. Inside there are five bays that would have stockpiled ammunition to resupply the guns above.
The command post is the most interesting of the structures. Semi-sunken, the seven room building would have served as the command and control centre fo the battery as well as a rest area for the crews when not manning the guns.
There are a few bays on the outside of the command post which would have mounted equipment such as a range finder, height finder, and other instrumentation.
All structures have been recently secured and access isn't possible with the exception of the command post where a panel has been removed and it's possible get inside.
