Hundreds More Fort Carson Soldiers Back Home From Southeast Asia

FORT CARSON, Colo. (CBS4) - A homecoming ceremony was held at Fort Carson Tuesday afternoon for 340 soldiers from the 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division.

The soldiers deployed in February to Southwest Asia. They took part in operations that extended over 13 countries in that region.

"Their deployment provided combatant commanders a versatile, responsive, and consistently available Army force to meet requirements across a range of military operations in the region," Fort Carson spokesperson Dani Johnson said in a statement.

It was just the latest homecoming ceremony at Fort Carson that has seen hundreds more troops return home over the last few weeks.
