8 The transition of authority between two Army National Guard battalions was a quiet and seamless affair, taking place without the traditional ‘pomp and circumstance’ normally associated with significant Army events.
The transition marked the end of a 15-month deployment for the Soldiers of the 124th Cyber Protection Battalion (CPB), who hail from Arkansas, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, Virginia and Utah, and the beginning for the Army National Guardsmen of the 123rd CPB, who call Illinois, Minnesota, Virginia, and Wisconsin their home states.
The battalions complete the fourth and begin the fifth iterations of Task Force Echo (TFE). TFE exists under the operational control of the 780th Military Intelligence Brigade (Cyber) and enables cyberspace operations in support of U.S. Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM). The 780th MI Brigade falls under the operational control of U.S. Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER).
