FORT LEONARD WOOD, Mo. — Maneuver Support Center of Excellence senior leaders hosted an awards ceremony Wednesday in Lincoln Hall Auditorium, where some of Fort Leonard Wood’s exceptional service members were recognized.
Speaking at the ceremony was MSCoE and Fort Leonard Wood Command Sgt. Maj. Jorge Arzabala, who said the service members being recognized are “committed, not only to themselves, but to their nation to become better.”
“This is an opportunity to recognize excellence among our ranks, and this is truly what it’s all about,” Arzabala said. “But more importantly, it gets after the (Chief of Staff of the Army Gen. Randy George)’s No. 1 priority — of the priorities — warfighting is why we exist. And in order to be a good warfighter, we must all have continuous transformation, and that’s what each of you have done. You have improved your ability to become a better noncommissioned officer, better officer, better service member for our military. At the end of the day, that’s the most lethal weapons system that we have, the service member.”
Following Arzabala’s remarks, four service members were awarded the Army Commendation Medal by Maj. Gen. Christopher Beck, MSCoE and Fort Leonard Wood commanding general, for their performances at the MSCoE Fourth Quarter Best Warrior and Joint Service Board:
