In addition to these two battalions, multiple companies also transitioned as complete units from within Spartan ranks to new organizations within the division footprint. The ceremony marks one of the final steps taken to inactivate the 2nd ABCT, slated to take place in January. It is also the last time that the brigade, in this configuration, will stand together as a complete unit. ( Army Photo by Staff Sgt.
