Description
English: British Royal Air Force Commodor Stuart Atha, air officer commanding of the 83rd Expeditionary Air Group, presents the Number 1 Air Control Center crest and flag to Brig. Gen. Larry D. Nicholson, commanding general of Marine Expeditionary Brigade-Afghanistan, during a brief ceremony where the control center turned off its radar for its first time in three years, Dec. 1, signifying the complete transfer of authority to the Tactical Air Operations Center, run by Marine Air Control Group 28, Marine Aircraft Group 40, MEB-Afghanistan. "It is an honor for us to follow in the footsteps of the 1st ACC," said Nicholson. He added that there will be big shoes to fill, but the Marines are up to the challenge of keeping up with the pace and performance levels set by their United Kingdom counterparts.
