Last week, the 90th Security Forces Group conducted its first ever triple change-of-command ceremony in front of Bldg. 34, the security forces headquarters building.

The units gaining new leadership were the 790th Missile Security Forces Squadron, the 90th Security Support Squadron and the 90th Missile Security Forces Squadron. Col. Tom Wilcox, 90th SFG commander, was the presiding officer for the day's event.

After the opening invocation by Chaplain (Lt. Col.) Alan "A.C." Chouest, 90th Missile Wing Chaplain, the triple change-of-command ceremony began with Capt. Kevin McMahon relinquishing command of the 90th SSPTS to Wilcox. Wilcox then presented Capt. Brent Gallant with the 90th SSPTS guideon as he assumed command.

The ceremony continued with the second change of command. This change saw Capt. Kenneth Bush relinquishing command of the 790th MSFS, and McMahon assuming command.

The final change of command for the day saw Bush assuming command of the 90th MSFS from the currently deployed Maj. Joel Briske.
