The Lethal Warriors celebrated their return from the latest deployment to Afghanistan by hosting a winter ball at the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs. There were many veterans invited to participate in the celebration as well. The event included the posting of the colors, toasts, reading of the unit history with soldiers of "period" uniforms, dinner, medal pinning ceremony, guest speaker, the singing of the 4th ID and Army song and finally, a bit of dancing.
