The command is given for the "Ironman" Battalion to "Present Arms", prior to their dismissal and reunion with family and friends. The Commanding Officers with Regimental Colors and Company Guidons are in front, the Sergeants Major in the rear.

Over 10,000 people were present at the Ball Park for the Welcome Home of the Red Bull "Ironman" Battalion after 22 months of active duty and 16 months in Iraq. The 1st Battalion, 133rd Infantry Regiment, was the last home from the 1st Brigade Combat Team, 34th Infantry Division. They have the record of being the longest serving National Guard Infantry Battalion in Iraq.
