WIESBADEN, Germany \u2013 U.S. Army Europe and Africa welcomed its new senior enlisted advisor during a change of responsibility ceremony at Clay Kaserne in Wiesbaden, Germany, on Aug. 7.<\/p>\n

Command Sgt. Maj. Jeremiah E. Inman, relinquished responsibility to Command Sgt. Maj. Christopher L. Mullinax, as the senior enlisted advisor for U.S. Army Europe and Africa, in a ceremony officiated by Gen. Christopher Donahue, U.S. Army Europe and Africa commanding general.<\/p>\n

The ceremony marked the end of an era and the beginning of a new chapter for the command\u2019s enlisted leadership. After 38 years of dutiful service, Inman will retire after leaving a strong mark not just on U.S. Army Europe and Africa, but the U.S. Army as a whole.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you look over the last three and a half years that he has been here, everything that has occurred, and what he and his wife have done to help this command, it has been nothing short of remarkable,\u201d said Donahue.<\/p>\n
