Fort Riley Unit Heading for Kuwait Date: March 12, 2010
A unit from the Army's 1st Infantry Division at Fort Riley is heading to Kuwait soon to begin the process of bringing soldiers home from Iraq. The 1st Sustainment Brigade will hold a ceremony on Monday to case its colors in preparation for the deployment. The brigade assists combat units in their operations. The soldiers are expected to be gone from Kansas for a year. The United States will begin reducing the number of combat troops in Iraq to about 50,000 by August as part of a security agreement with the Iraqi government. The agreement leaves noncombat units to assist with advising, training and support operations.
