English: Brig. Gen. Billy Don Farris is presented with a 155mm casing from one of the last rounds fired in his honor from a soldier with 17th Fires Brigade, 7th Infantry Division. The soldier was a part of the salute battery, who rendered honors to Farris during his retirement ceremony, June 28, at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash. After three decades of service the nation, Farris, the 7th Infantry Division deputy commanding general for operations, was honored during a retirement ceremony hosted by Maj. Gen. Stephen R. Lanza, 7th Infantry Division commanding general. “We are really here to honor and celebrate a father, a husband, a warrior, a soldier, a leader, for three decades of unparalleled service to the nation and I’m just honored to be up here…You are the elite warrior, the elite soldier, the elite family man, and all of us in here that have had the benefit, the privilege of knowing you whether it be personally or professionally know that about you,” Lanza told Farris and others in attendance. In his last official duty position, Farris served as Lanza’s deputy commanding general for operations, responsible for the development and implementation of training for a newly reactivated division with seven subordinate brigades— the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Teams; the 16th Combat Aviation Brigade; the 17th Fires Brigade; the 555th Engineer Brigade; and the 201st Battlefield Surveillance Brigade. |
