Col. Martin takes command of Fort Hamilton
Col. Craig Martin assumed command of the U.S. Army Garrison Fort Hamilton on Tuesday, taking over for Col. Andrew Zieseniss.
“I look at this audience and it’s fulfilling for me because this is a diverse population as this city and our nation is,” said Martin at the change-of command ceremony. “It proves we can come together as a city in Brooklyn and New York City and at Fort Hamilton and achieve great things.
“People are the number one business to the army. They are the number one priority. We take care of our soldiers, civilians and our families. They are critical, and without them we can’t accomplish anything. They make up communities.”
