JOINT BASE CHARLESTON, S.C. –
It was the first of its kind and it was a resounding success. The first ever Joint Base Charleston Commander's Cup was held Sept. 27 through Oct. 1. and 16 military teams from around the Lowcountry took part in the festivities.
Marines, Soldiers, Airmen and Sailors represented their respective commands in eight different sporting events and the Naval Nuclear Power Training Command took home the winning trophy, edging out the 14th Airlift Squadron by two points, 68-66. Coming in third and only six points out was the 628th Civil Engineer Squadron.
The 628th Security Forces Squadron came in fourth, followed by the 628th Logistics Readiness Squadron Team 1, the 628th Force Support Squadron and the Navy Brig. Rounding out the top ten in eighth place was the Public Works Department, the Marine Liaison Detachment and the 628th Communications Squadron.
Participating in the competition, but outside of the top ten were the 628 Logistics Readiness Squadron Team 2, the 628th Medical Group, the 437th Maintenance Squadron, 16th Airlift Squadron, the 17th Airlift Squadron and the 437th Aerial Port Squadron.
