On June 9, a crowd gathered for a ceremony to bid farewell to Brig. Gen. Arthur J. Pasagian and welcome Brig. Gen. David C. Walsh in front of Marine Corps Systems Command, at the Quantico Marine Corps Base.
The event drew dozens of friends, family, and Marines to honor both Pasagian and Walsh for their years of service. Lieutenant General Karsten S. Heckl, commanding general, Marine Corps Combat Development Command, and the Deputy Commandant for Combat Development and Integration, provided opening remarks.
"The accomplishments at Marine Corps Systems Command during your tenure are a direct reflection of your outstanding leadership," said Lt. Gen. Heckl. "I know firsthand how much effort you put into ensuring our command is on track with our Marines. You had the intelligence and communication capabilities needed to make an expeditionary force. You were undoubtedly the right Marine at the right time to lead this demand."
