\u201cOur mission is to go out and represent the division and the Army, while showcasing some of the incredible opportunities the Army holds for potential future Soldiers,\u201d said Klinger.<\/p>\n

The CGMCG is a truly unique opportunity in the Army, open to all active-duty soldiers., \u201cThe troopers of the CGMCG are all active-duty Soldiers on temporary assignment with the unit. They are taught to ride in their 60-day candidacy and come from almost every military occupational specialty (MOS). Each trooper recognizes the honor and responsibility of representing both the First Infantry Division and the United States Army,\u201d said U.S. Army 1st Lt. Elizabeth O\u2019Bryan, the CGMCG company executive officer.<\/p>\n

This assortment of Soldiers from different MOS backgrounds support events like CFD in hopes of broadening and fortifying the Army’s relationships with communities all over the nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe CGMCG capitalizes on its community outreach by supporting local events to Fort Riley and also hitting the road to participate in rodeos, youth camps, colors presentations at sports events, ceremonial events, cavalry competitions, the Pony Express, historical re-enactments, parades, the list goes on,\u201d said O\u2019Bryan. \u201cWherever the CGMCG can support and build positive relationships with communities, the team will be there!\u201d<\/p>\n
