Fort Benning is a United States Army post straddling the Alabama–Georgia border next to Columbus, Georgia. Fort Benning supports more than 120,000 active-duty military, family members, reserve component soldiers, retirees, and civilian employees on a daily basis. It is a power projection platform, and possesses the capability to deploy combat-ready forces by air, rail, and highway. Fort Benning is the home of the United States Army Maneuver Center of Excellence, the United States Army Armor School, United States Army Infantry School, the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation (formerly known as the School of the Americas), elements of the 75th Ranger Regiment (United States), the 1st Security Force Assistance Brigade, and other additional tenant units.
It is named after Henry L. Benning, a brigadier general in the Confederate States Army during the Civil War.
Since 1909, Fort Benning has served as the Home of the Infantry. Since 2005, Fort Benning has been transformed into the Maneuver Center of Excellence, as a result of the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission's decision to consolidate a number of schools and installations to create various "centers of excellence". Included in this transformation was the move of the Armor School from Fort Knox to Fort Benning.

The National Infantry Museum and Soldier Center is a museum located in Columbus, Georgia, just outside the Maneuver Center of Excellence at Fort Benning. The 190,000-square-foot museum opened in June 2009.
The museum chronicles the history of the United States Army infantryman from the American Revolution to Afghanistan. It exhibits artifacts from all eras of American history and contains interactive multimedia exhibits. The National Infantry Museum emphasizes the values that are meant to define the infantryman, as well as the nation: loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity, and personal courage.
In addition to galleries, the National Infantry Museum and Soldier Center also consists of:
Giant Screen Theater
DownRange Combat Simulators
The Fife and Drum Restaurant
The Soldier Store Gift Shop
Heritage Walk
Memorial Walk of Honor
Vietnam Memorial Plaza
Global War on Terrorism Memorial (Fall 2017)
World War II Company Street.
Until April 2008, the museum was housed in an old Army hospital on Fort Benning. Space and conditions for the museum’s collection was inadequate. In 1998, the 501(c)(3) National Infantry Foundation was formed to plan, raise funds for and to operate a new museum. The National Infantry Museum Foundation has since formed a formal partnership with the Army to manage the facility and its contents. The National Infantry Museum does not receive federal, state or city funding. Through its lease agreement with the National Infantry Museum Foundation, the Army reimburses the foundation for approximately 30 percent of the museum’s annual operating expenses. There is no admission fee. The museum relies on donations, memberships and revenue-generating attractions such as the Giant Screen Theater, combat simulators, Fife and Drum Restaurant, Soldier Store and event rentals to cover operating expenses.
The museum is located on a 155-acre campus adjacent to Fort Benning. The campus includes Inouye Field and a 2,100-seat stadium which hosts graduations of Army trainees most Thursdays and Fridays. The graduations are open to the public.
World War II Company Street is a collection of seven buildings constructed at Fort Benning during the ramp-up to World War II. They have been furnished as they were in the 1940s and are open for tours most days. The buildings include a chapel, barracks, mess hall, orderly room, supply room, and the sleeping quarters and headquarters building used by Gen. George Patton prior to his deployment to North Africa in 1942.
The Vietnam Memorial Plaza contains a ¾-scale replica of the Vietnam Wall on the Mall in Washington, D.C.
The Global War on Terrorism Memorial (under construction Summer 2017) includes the names of 6,800 Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines killed in service since 9/11. A 13-foot steel beam pulled from the wreckage of the World Trade Center and donated to the museum by New York City firefighters is featured in the design of the memorial.
The museum received a Thea Award for excellence from the Themed Entertainment Association in 2011, USA Today’s 2016 Readers’ Choice Award for Best Free Museum, and TripAdvisor’s Hall of Fame recognition for continued excellence.

On May 9, 2018, the 644th Regional Support Group (RSG) from Fort Snelling, Minn., furled its unit colors to signify the end of its mission within the Mobilization and Deployment (MaD) Division at Fort Bliss, Texas. During the transfer of authority ceremony, the 210th Regional Support Group (RSG) from Puerto Rico resumed the mission throughout the upcoming year.
The ceremony began with 644th RSG and 210th RSG Soldiers forming in the front of the room. Chaplain (Capt.) Bradley Wysomierski, 644th RSG Chaplain, opened the ceremony with an Invocation, which was followed by Sgt. First Class Joanne Makay singing the National Anthem.
At that time, Col. Dominic Wibe, 644th RSG commander, and Sgt. Maj. William Dullea, 644th RSG acting Command Sgt. Maj., cased the 644th RSG unit flag. Immediately after, Col. Javier Rivera, 210th RSG commander, and Command Sgt. Maj. Mario Canizales, 210th Command Sgt. Maj., uncased the 210th RSG unit flag.
Col. Steven Murphy, Fort Bliss Garrison Command, was the first to share remarks with the group. To the Soldiers of the 644th RSG, Murphy expressed gratitude to each and everyone, including family members, for dedicating the time to be at Fort Bliss throughout the last year. “Thank you for the job you did in the last year. You set the standard as the RSG for the mobilization mission,” he said. “The role you played was critical and the way you did it was phenomenal.”
Col. Murphy referenced the number of Soldiers the 644th RSG processed through MaD in the last year, being more than 60,000. Regarding the 644th RSG’s leadership throughout and the role in Fort Bliss’ expansion as the Mobilization Support Force, he said, “I saw the breadth and depth of what you did was fantastic.”
Col. Murphy equally welcomed the 210th RSG for the upcoming year and stated confidence in their success as well. “Thank you for being a part of the mobilization and demobilization mission. I am honored to be a part of your team.”
Col. Wibe then provided remarks, explaining the 644th RSG’s mission throughout the past year was nothing short of “enterprise accomplishments” and that each and every Soldier has a significant role in the success of the mission, each and every one is important. “You took ownership of every task, to the lowest level. You did your piece and you did it well,” he said. “The 210th RSG will take this mission and move it forward.”
Final remarks from Col. Rivera, “The 644th RSG has set the standard.” He explained the 210th RSG is ready to take on the mission at MaD.
Chaplain (Maj.) Luis Cardoza, 210th RSG Chaplain, provided the Benediction and the ceremony was then complete with the singing of the Army song.
About the 644th Regional Support Group and the Mobilization and Deployment Division mission:
During the 12-month mobilization, the 644th RSG conducted mobilization management operations in support of military operations around the world. The 84 Army Reserve Soldiers within the 644th RSG consist primarily of members from Minnesota and throughout the Midwest and will return home after showcasing their talents and skills to the U.S. Army and the federal government. The Soldiers departed in May 2017 and are anticipating on returning home to their families, friends and communities the later part of May 2018.
The 644th RSG managed the entire Fort Bliss Mobilization and Deployment (MaD) Division supported by 22 Department of the Army Civilians and 450 Department of Defense contractors. The 644th RSG has provided 24/7 administrative and logistical support for more than 65,000 members of the Active, National Guard, and Reserve components of the Army, Air Force and Navy, federal agencies, coalition partners, and contractors, who have mobilized and demobilized through Fort Bliss to multiple locations around the world.
The 644th RSG facilitated countless overseas flights and created orders for all personnel while coordinating deployment training support and redeployment support for Soldiers, Sailors, and Airmen deploying and returning from around the world. The 644th RSG Soldiers provided engineer support and information technology support in order to sustain and improve base facilities for support to contingency operations with a capacity of more than 9,000 troops at a time. They issued more than $2 million in food, fuel, and supplies, and maintain oversight of all integrated logistics policies, procurement functions, programs, and plans that enabled information operations support throughout the Army and other military forces while ensuring all sensitive item accountability. The 644th RSG operated the Soldier Readiness and Resiliency Center (SRRC), ensuring that all personnel who processed through the SRRC were 100 percent medically and administratively qualified to perform their unique missions in both the United States and overseas and are properly cared for upon their return from overseas.
The 644th RSG has been highly effective in ensuring all mobilizing and demobilizing units and individuals are ready to deploy throughout the world in support of National Defense. The 644th RSG has become a leading unit in the Army Reserve to provide necessary support to all units reporting through Fort Bliss, Texas, for contingency operations.
The 644th RSG is commanded by Col. Dominic J. Wibe. When not mobilized the 644th RSG consists of nine subordinate units, 1,150 Soldiers, that provide fuel, water, food, lodging, transportation, maintenance, and other logistical support as directed. The 644th RSG is charged with conducting base operations, base defense, and civil support missions both within and outside the United States.

Yubi Kirindongo. Rebel in Art & Soul
Museum Beelden aan Zee, Den Haag 2014
In excess of fifty larger and smaller sculptures provide an overview of the exceptional oeuvre of this Antillean, who creates sculptures from recycled waste material and objects he has found.
The work of the celebrated and award-winning Yubi Kirindongo (Willemstad, 1946) has been seen throughout the world, both in galleries and at international exhibitions such as the Biennials of Havana, Johannesburg and São Paulo. His work is accessible, but not ‘uncomplicated’. Until now, Kirindongo’s recycling art has seldom been seen in the Netherlands. With more than sixty works created in the period from the 1970s to the present day, Museum Beelden aan Zee is presenting the first major retrospective of the oeuvre of the Antilles’ most important artist. To be seen are sculptures made from car bumpers and other vehicle components. But Kirindongo also fashions other waste materials and discarded objects into meaningful and socially engaged sculptures.
After a hard youth, at the age of nineteen the fatherless Yubi Kirindongo left the Antilles as a stowaway on a freighter for Europe. After eventually arriving in Amsterdam by way of Athens, Rome and Genoa, he found work as, among other things, a hospital ward orderly, but also as a boxer. However, Kirindongo’s life took a turn for the worse, and he ended up on the seamy side of the 1960s petit bourgeois Dutch society, reaching it deepest point with a spell in prison. However, both while serving his sentence and later after his release, he came in contact to an increasing extent with a true interest, art. Kirindongo felt liberated after reading the life story of Caravaggio. The same hot-headedness, constantly having to watch his back, but still able to create magnificent works of art.
Yubi Kirindongo started painting when he was still in the Netherlands. In the mid-1970s he returned for good to Curaçao, where he discovered that he was more of a sculptor than painter, developing into a socially engaged artist who championed the far-reaching emancipation of the black population. Through his art, he has fought for the cause of social change. Kirindongo works with waste: he identifies himself with the material, but makes it arise from the ashes like a phoenix into new, splendid sculptures. He has the talent of being able to combine all manner of diverse objects. He gained international fame with his recycled art made from scrap car bumpers, but that was just the beginning of an oeuvre that has as its most prevalent themes the freedom of mankind, the condemnation and combating of slavery, and the breathing of new life into something that appears to be ‘dead’. Seemingly folkloristic and easy on the eye, Kirindongo’s work still has much in common with the wrongs on the island and in his own life. Yubi Kirindongo is the cultural icon of Curaçao.

More components for a future C-5B. We see the NLG, to the left an outer wing box section, and in the background a center wing box. The white building in the background is the Lockheed low speed (i.e. "subsonic") wind tunnel. It was at the time of this photo (and may still be) the largest low-speed wind tunnel in the world. When not used to test aircraft designs, it was often rented out to automobile companies to aid in car design.
I'm begging to think the colours in this piece are too subtle to show up in the final cane but what is done is done. A lesion for next time.
Entre 1959 y 1962, 329 de estos hermosos coches fueron fabricados. El diseño es de Giovanni Michelotti, el chasis del TR3 y los componentes mecánicos eran suministrados por la Triumph Motor Company desde el Reino Unido y el producto final salía de la fábrica de Alfredo Vignale en Turí, Italia. El coche fué idea del distribuidor de Standard-Triumph en Italia, Salvatore Ruffino, quién pensaba en una producción de unas mil unidades. Las dificultades económicas de Triumph, terminó siendo comprada por British Leyland, y la presentación por parte de la casa inglesa de su modelo TR4, también diseñado por Michelotti con muchos elementos de este modelo, terminaron la corta carrera de uno de los Triumph más hermosos.
