"And you have been well commanded for the last 36 months each and every day by Mrs. Mangum and Colonel Kevin Mangum."

"As with many other leaders and Soldiers whose successes you have enabled and whose lives you have saved, your service is legendary," he said
In his farewell remarks, Mangum reflected on his time as a Night Stalker and recognized his Soldiers and their families, including his own.
