    A Fort Drum & 10th Mountain Division Publication THE SUN NEVER SETS ON THE 10TH MOUNTAIN PATCH August 2019, Vol. 2 Issue 7 A Soldier from 2nd Brigade Combat Team em- braces a loved one at a redeployment ceremony in- side Monti Physical Fitness Center on Fort Drum, NY, July 11, 2019. The event was one of several Welcome Home Ceremonies following a nine- month deployment to Kosovo and Afghanistan. OUR LEGACY Soldiers from 1st Battalion, 87th Infantry Regiment stand with Robert Loughhead, July 17, 2019 on Fort Drum, NY. Loughhead was a former forward observer attached to 1-87, who fought as a rifleman during the Battle of Mogadishu, a battle that occurred during Operation Restore Hope. He was invited to speak to present-day 1st Soldiers to give them advice for future deployments. Operation Restore Hope began Dec. 8, 1992, under the direction of a multinational Unified Task Force. The U.S. Army component Task Force Mountain was built around the 1st and 2nd Brigades of 10th Mountain Division, along with avia- tion, artillery and support assets. During Operation Restore Hope, the 10th Mountain Division’s mission was to secure major cities and roads to provide safe passage of relief supplies to the starving Somali population. They saved hundreds of thousands from starvation, and by mid-February 1993, the division began the gradual reduction of forces in the country. In May 1993, the United Nations assumed the task of securing the flow of relief supplies to Somalia, ending Operation Restore Hope, and marked the beginning of Operation Continue Hope.

Ironically, the idea of a winter-warfare unit did not originate within the U.S. Army, but was conceived by a man who was well-versed in history, had been in the military during WWI, and was adamant that a corps of “mountain troops” was vital to America’s national security.

    FALLEN MEN POST VIETNAM OF BURLINGTON COUNTY, NJ MAY 27, 2019 1 NOTES This Booklet was prepared on behalf of the Burlington County War Memorial Committee. It is interrelated to the Post-Vietnam Monument that was originally dedicated October 21, 2010. Additional names have been added since that time. The photo on the cover was taken by Sgt. Richard D. Stephens The other photos and biographical information are the property of NJ Run for the Fallen. It is used herein with written permission. Prior to using any of the photos/biographical information, YOU must obtain written permission from the NJ Run for the Fallen. Additional information on the Men may be found on the NJ Run for the Fallen web site. The Burlington County War Monument Committee disbanded on May 27, 2019. The Post Vietnam monument was installed in Freedom Park, October 21, 2010, next to the Vietnam War Monument. It was funded by proceeds of a 5K run which was held on Memorial Day weekend and organized by the Medford Returning Veteran’s Committee (MRVC) and Marlton Assembly of God. Initially, there were 12 names of Burlington County’s fallen inscribed on the granite memorial. The chairman of the MVRC stated “We selected Freedom Park because of the existing monument”. He added. “Adding the new monument centralizes the park as the location within Burlington County for anyone who would like to honor soldiers from Vietnam through present day.” Over the years, the number of names inscribed rose to 16. On Memorial Day 2019, an additional 3 names were added.

    A Fort Drum & 10th Mountain Division Publication THE SUN NEVER SETS ON THE 10TH MOUNTAIN PATCH May 2018, Vol. 1 Issue 3 10th Combat Aviation Brigade operated a com- mand post at Tahawus Mine, in eastern New York during their Falcon’s Peak exercise. They conducted tactical ground and aerial operations from Vermont all the way back to Fort Drum over an arduous two week training exercise in difficult North Country weather, building experience and proving themselves ‘Ready Now.’ U.S. Army photo by Spc. Thomas Scaggs OUR LEGACY Does this Distinguished Unit Insignia seem familiar? The bayonet at the center is symbolic of infantry combat service. The mountain shapes recall the letter “M,” alluding to the division’s former designation as “Mountain” troops. Blue and white are the colors associated with Infantry. The powder keg shape is reminiscent of the division’s patch. The edelweiss flower only grows at high altitudes meaning only a mountaineer would be able to pick this flower. During World War II the edelweiss flower was the symbol of the German mountain troops. This unit insignia was never authorized however, it was worn by members of the 10th Infantry in Germany during the Cold War 1954-1958. Courtesy photo by CJTF-OIR Signifying the end of major combat operations against ISIS in Iraq, the Combined Joint Forces Land Component Command Headquarters was deactivated by the 10th Mountain Division on April 20, 2018 in Baghdad, Iraq. This command was responsible for Coalition land force operations in support of the Iraqi Security Force (ISF) during the campaign to defeat ISIS in Iraq and liberate more than 4.5 million Iraqis subject to ISIS’s control.
