U.S. Army Special Operations Command are preparing to conduct a Change of Responsibility Ceremony at USASOC Headquarters on Fort Bragg at the beginning of May.
Lt. Gen. Jonathan Braga, USASOC commanding general, will officiate the ceremony welcoming
Command Sgt. Maj. JoAnn Naumann as the incoming command senior non-commissioned
officer and bidding farewell to Command Sgt. Maj. Michael R. Weimer.
Naumann previously served as the Special Operations Command-Korea’s command senior
enlisted leader. She enlisted in the U.S. Army in February 1996 as a voice language analyst,
completing the Arabic Basic Course at the Defense Language Institute and Advanced Individual
Training at Goodfellow Air Force Base.
Naumann’s assignments include serving as the Joint Special Operations Command J2 senior enlisted advisor, command sergeant major for the 15th Military Intelligence Battalion (Aerial Exploitation), and JSOC Intelligence Brigade.
Weimer was sworn in as USASOC’s senior non-commissioned officer on Aug. 13, 2021. His
next assignment is serving as the 17th Sergeant Major of the Army.
“When I joined the Army in 1993, I never would have thought I’d make it this far,” Weimer said in a press release. “It’s an absolute honor to be selected as the next Sergeant Major of the Army, and I’m looking forward to continuing to serve our incredible Soldiers and their families.”
