HANOVER TWP. -- Three Army Reserve commands merged under the 99th Regional
Support Command during a ceremony Saturday at the Chaplain Sabalis Memorial
U.S. Army Reserve Center at Hanover Industrial Estates. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 The 79th, 97th and 99th Army Reserve Commands will now be known as the 99th
Regional Support Command. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The local transferring units are: the 367th Military Police, the 392nd
Signal Battalion, and the 424th Military Police, all from Ashley. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Those units, which had reported to the 79th Army Reserve Command, will now
report to the 99th Regional Support Command based in Pittsburgh. About 600
soldiers from the 79th were involved in the transfer. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Maj. Thomas Supplee said the transfers were brought about by Army
restructuring. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Maj. Gen. Leonard L. Hoch, commander of the 99th RSC, was scheduled to
speak at the ceremony, but could not attend. Hoch's comments were read to five
units represented by about 110 soldiers Saturday. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 "Certainly being an Army Reserve soldier is a voluntary act driven by
something deeper than the promise of pay and benefits," Hoch said in his
statement. "Even though we have change, other constants must be nurtured and
cultivated. Constants such as dedication to duty, perseverance in training and
mission accomplishment." &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Hoch's statements were read by Brig. Gen. Mark Bailey, with the 99th RSC. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 "Challenge is directly in the path of all of us," Bailey read from Hoch's
statement. "It is now a path we will walk together, mutually respectful,
mutually supportive and mutually loyal." &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
