The 165th Infantry Brigade dominated Fort Jackson's Victory Week sporting events earning them the coveted Commander’s Cup.
I “always appreciate being out here for a day of golf,” capping off Victory Week in this way, said Maj. Gen. Daryl O. Hood, Fort Jackson commander, during an awards presentation that saw the 165th take top honors.
The event also ended one of last events of the weeklong celebration of Fort Jackson’s birthday. The last event was an Army Ball held June 13 to honor the Army’s 251st anniversary.
“165th you did it again – well done,” Hood added. “To our retirees, family and friends that may be here and throughout the community, we appreciate you coming out today.”
