Transformation to the 2D Combat Aviation Brigade

Abstract

Transformation arrived for the aviation brigades in Korea on June 16, 2006 when the 17th Aviation Brigade cased its colors and the 6th Cavalry Regiment reflagged to become the 2d Multi-Functional Aviation Brigade (MFAB). A new era began for army aviation in Korea. The 2d MFAB experienced an additional transformation with a name change to the 2d Combat Aviation Brigade (CAB). My journey as the Operations Sergeant Major began on August 1, 2006. Two weeks later, the brigade conducted the first major training exercise, Ulchi Focus Lens. The brigade operated at a high operational tempo for the next 10 months. This paper recounts my experience as the first Operations Sergeant Major of the 2d Combat Aviation Brigade.
