We are honored that the 77th Sustainment Brigade will serve as this year's Grand Marshal
under the command of
Col. Joyce Junior.

The 77th is a unit of the United States Army that inherited the lineage of the 77th Infantry Division ("Statue of Liberty"), which served with distinction in World War I and World War II.

Its headquarters is now at Fort Dix, New Jersey after its predecessor command, the 77th Regional Readiness Command, was disestablished in 2008 from Fort Totten, in Bayside (Queens), New York.

Soldiers from the 77th have served in most every major conflict and contingency operation since World War II, and several gave their lives on 11 September 2001.

The division was nicknamed the "Statue of Liberty Division", the shoulder patch bearing the Statue of Liberty in gold on a blue truncated triangle US Marines on Guam nicknamed them the "77th Marine Division".

The Clearview Expressway in Queens, New York is named the "77th Infantry Division Expressway", honoring the Division's personnel who hailed from Queens and Long Island.
