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. -
